On this date in 1900 the last flakes of one of late-winter’s masterpieces were trickling down after depositing record-breaking snow from the Great Plains to New England. Locally 21 inches fell in Burlington, 31 inches in Northfield – the biggest storm on record there – and press reports of up to 40 inches in both Woodstock and Derby, VT.
