A major winter storm occurred from January 31 – February 2, bringing blizzard conditions to the Chicago area with 19.3 inches (49 cm) of snow, being the fifth-largest snowfall in city history.
Detroit received 16.7 inches (42 cm), the third-largest recorded total and largest storm in 40 years.
Over a foot of snow was reported in locations in Indiana, Iowa, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
At least 25 centimetres (9.8 in) of snow fell near Toronto.
Some parts of the Northeast received up to two feet of snow from this storm, as a heavy band of snow stalled over Southern New England.
However, widespread amounts of between 10 and 15 inches were much more the norm.
