The most snow I've seen is 25". Except in my area it builds up against the house and the weird terrain I'm in, so it's actually about 3 feet. It was up past the hood of my dad's F-150, and I must say it was damn hard to shovel. Given the fact my family doesn't believe in snowblowers, and the fact that they wouldn't workeven if we had one. Go Rhode Island! (for all you that don't know its a state)
