episode_narrativeSnow fell, with the heaviest snow occurring overnight and the morning of the 3rd. Accumulations averaged as little as 4 to 6 inches along the Lake Erie shore to 14 inches inland. Northeast winds of 20 mph with gusts to 30 mph produced significant blowing and drifting snow and localized blizzard conditions and drifts up to 6 feet. Roof collapses began as the snow piled up and continued for days after the storm. A barn collapse in western Crawford County killed 9 dairy cows and injured a number of others. A 54 year old Cambridge Springs man (Crawford County) was killed after a large chunk of ice fell from a roof and hit him in the head. It took two men to lift the ice chunk off the body.
