I know that Nisqually had a very wicked winter in 1833-34, based on diary entries from a person in the Hudson's Bay Company. He made reference to heavy and deep snowfall from a couple of different periods that winter.

It's a guilty pleasure for my wife as well. That guy just creeps me out.

I see what your saying, but almost every winter had an insanely good month that decade. December 1884 alone was like 5 or more winters worth of snow now. I think I would choose the 1860s over the 1880s down your way, because January 1868 had a lot of snow there and here it was just very cold and dry.

My girlfriend is an addict of that sister wives show and it's probably my least favorite thing about her.

I think there are some pretty detailed maps showing normal snowfall, but I know don't how to find them. Seems like somebody posted that on here once.
