snow has a history with this date

and it's snowing again. However, the forecast says it will only snow about an hour more, then things warm up.

But I remember a blizzard around this date in 1977, when the snow filled our courtyard up to the windowsills.

I also remember a bad snowstorm in 1972, when two friends and I were almost killed on Rt. 95 in Delaware. We were on our way to Connecticut, but never made it past West Chester.

So this is not unusual weather.
