Spring is obviously not a smooth progression forward, but is fraught with set backs, such as the heavy, wet snowstorm that hit on this date in 1953. Most lower elevations experienced a cold rain, while the higher elevations collected snow, but cold air held in the Champlain valley, giving Burlington 4.6 inches of snow. Farther north Enosburg Falls was digging out from 13 and a half inches, while the southern Green Mountains had as much as 15 and a half inches in Somerset, VT.
