A “major” snow storm was predicted for my area yesterday, and overnight last night. It turned out to be an accumulation of 2-3 inches in most areas. This is what it looked like in Flemington, NJ late yesterday afternoon. The majestic little building in the center of the pic is the historic 1828 Hunterdon County Courthouse, where the Lindbergh Kidnapping Trial took place in 1934. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/8/c/8c8e8b1d4f92cfb90043e876e6860d92c2817447.jpeg) ---

They are predictied to have a once-in-a-lifetime snow in New Orleans, over 6" potentially, along with over 3" in Houston. That combination never happens. [Previous page](https://community.cartalk.com/t/the-great-polar-vortex-that-hit-hampton-roads-virginia-on-january-5-2025/198676.md?page=1)
