* The world's largest Snowflake fell on January 28th 1887, in Ft. Keogh, Montana. It was 15 inches across and 8 inches thick! The runner up was one that fell in Bratsk, Siberia, almost a century later {1971} it measured 8 inches by 12 inches.
* The heaviest snowfall on record was in Silver Lake, Colorado on April 14-15 in 1921, when the town received 67 inches of fresh snow in 24 hrs.
* The largest single Snow storm on record lasted 5 days in Alaska in 1955, and left more 141.50 feet of snow!
* Biggest Hail storm, you ask?, Ok, in 2010 in South Dakota, the hail were as large as softballs weighing in at 2 lbs. per hail boulder!
* And finally Hailstorms are built like onions- the layers count the number of times it traveled to the top of the storm before falling to the ground, by creating a new layer on every passing.
