1717 - On Fishers Island in Long Island Sound, 1200 sheep were discovered to have been buried under a snow drift for four weeks. When finally uncovered, one hundred sheep were still alive. (The Weather Channel)
wow so we did get buried in 1717.....literally! Glad to hear they were rescued, I wonder how much snow fell here?
also interesting how frigid 1996 was so late in the season and 2016 went back to warm lol
