Also to be done in phases the Phase 1 property is at the corner of United States Ave and Lakeview Drive. Up until 10 years ago that corner was the location of a large distribution building and office I previously covered the Site Remediation efforts taking place in the area. You can read that detailed coverage here Also I provide a short update in this new article Identified in Planning Board documents as Lakeside Village the 163 townhome project is being developed by Dr This Phase One aspect on Clementon Road sits across the street from the Lucas House and was previously a parking lot and undeveloped woods The first phase will consist of 15 blocks of townhomes with four-to-six units per block. Site plan renderings from the Township do not show any common community aspects In a July 2023 Facebook post Gibbsboro Mayor Edward Campbell stated there will be 3 versions of the townhomes built which will sell between $400,000 and $500,000 each resulting in a significant boost to the tax base He also reminds residents that this was originally proposed as a development of over 500 apartments with 16% set aside for affordable housing. The borough was not amenable to those plans and in a lawsuit brought by then developer Brandywine an agreement was reached in Superior Court which led to the plans for this townhome development Phase two of the housing would be along South United States Avenue to the lake waterfront Somewhat right in the middle of the lakes southern edge where a small parking area exists as well as woods The third phase is an L-shaped property on the other side of South United States Avenue which is also an unused parking lot. The CVS pharmacy would be to the immediate East of the Phase Three property I do not have any timing on the phases or when the first phase of townhomes would be ready for leasing I could not find any online marketing presence for the project Silver Lake already has a successful restaurant with the Chop House located on the northeast corner of lake (Lakeview Drive and Clementon Rd) featuring amazing views of the water… and an amazing menu realizing that the lake location and popularity for community activities has hopes to have have a restaurant on each corner of the lake According to comments by Mayor Campbell in the November Council Meeting they will be preparing a “Request For Proposals” for the development of the properties hoping to have the restaurant property RFP available for January I reached out to the Mayor this morning for an update on that timing but honestly it was just an hour ago so I do not have an answer yet Tax records show that two of the three properties are owned by Gibbsboro The large remediation properties on the western side of the lake along Foster Ave were acquired by Sherwin Williams two years ago… Sherwin Williams is handling the costs of the remediation efforts The corner property at Foster and Clementon Road has been designated “Vista Park” and in that area a restaurant is also targeted… which makes me think at least a portion of this remediation land will be turned over to Gibbsboro eventually About 18-months ago I covered the Paint Works Site remediation project somewhat extensively including property history, and you can read those details here That being said the Mayor provides regular updates at his Facebook page which was used for portions of the update below Currently efforts are focused on Foster Avenue properties which is closed to through traffic as they have temporary piping in place over the roadway A core aspect of the effort is to remove contaminated soil which required contractors to remove parking lots and demolish a few buildings to access the soil underneath. Soil is being removed and stockpiled on site and then trucks come at a later day to move off-site The Paint Works parking lot is closed to the public and the wooden boardwalk at the base of Silver Lake is also closed to the public while they move through this remediation effort The paved portion of the lake trail remains open Some closures have also taken place on Washington Street and Haddon Ave in the area but that is for the installation of sanitary sewer mains in support of the townhome project Paint Works – Sherwin Williams/Hilliards Creek RemediationFoster AveGibbsboro NJ Categories News Lillo’s Tomato Pies Gloucester City Sets Opening For Early February Raising Cane’s Glassboro Sets Grand Opening For Thursday Jan 9th Greater Cleveland Sports Commission and Mid-American Conference will be hosting the 2024 NCAA Division I Great Lakes Cross Country Regionals The NCAA Division I Great Lakes Cross Country Regionals will take place at Silver Creek Metro Park on Friday Men and women collegiate student-athletes will race to secure their spot at the National Championships Starting Box Assignments Men Entries Women Entries Summit Metro Parks is the second oldest park district in Ohio The park consists of 15,000 acres throughout 16 parks including 22 miles of the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail Annual attendance averages 5 million visits Cross Country Course Maps The team drop off location is the Silver Creek Cross Country/Disc Golf Course located at 4579 Medina Line Rd.

GIBBSBORO — Officials want to create a restaurant district here as part of sweeping changes around the local landmark Silver Lake A master developer is being sought for the planned construction of up to four restaurants around the lake according to Gibbsboro Mayor Edward Campbell Horton has approvals to build a 163-unit townhome community on undeveloped land near the lake New year, new restaurants: See these spots for Colombian food, pizza, more And borough officials are creating a venue for public events and private rentals at the Lucas House an 18th-century structure that overlooks the lake “We have more than $1.3 million for this,” Campbell said of the historic site’s conversion which last year received a $750,000 federal grant through U.S Plans also call for a new park to the south of the Lucas House and improvements to an already-popular three-quarter-mile path around the water The wide-ranging changes are intended “to grow our tax base and establish a ‘Gibbsboro brand’ that benefits existing and future residents and businesses,” Campbell said The lake currently has one restaurant on its shoreline an upscale eatery owned by the Haddon Township-based parent company of P.J “We believe Silver Lake is an ideal location for restaurants as evidenced by the continued success of The ChopHouse,” Campbell said Plans call for restaurants on three roads that run by Silver Lake: The first two phases of the restaurant project “will have significant infrastructure available to the developer which would retain ownership of the restaurant sites also is expected to support New Jersey concessionaire permits for future tenants The permits allow liquor sales on publicly held property “It's possible the Lakeview Drive and Clementon Road properties could be in operation in a year approval and construction is more realistic,” Campbell said He expects the restaurants and townhomes — with an anticipated price point of approximately $500,000 — will be “fully completed and occupied within three years.” “Combined with revenue from the restaurants and new cannabis taxes (from a dispensary in a formerly vacant bank building on South Lakeview Drive) the town will realize a significant boost in annual tax revenue,” the mayor said has been known largely for years-long projects to remediate three Superfund sites within its 2.2 square miles The polluted areas were the unwanted legacy of an oil-based paint and varnish factory that started in 1851 as John Lucas & Co and several smokestacks now loom over the lake as a reminder of its presence A developer bought the site in 1981 and built an office complex on part of the property and construction is more realistic,” said Campbell “Combined with revenue from the restaurants and new cannabis taxes (from a dispensary in a formerly vacant bank building on Lakeview Drive) Borough officials are pursuing the restaurant project with the Camden County Improvement Authority which is to open bids from prospective developers April 1 The authority “will continue to provide expertise and technical assistance in expanding economic development within the historic municipality,” said Louis Cappelli Jr. Jim Walsh is a senior reporter for the Courier-Post Burlington County Times and The Daily Journal “We began our work with them by forming a common mission—to blend comfort A big renovation was needed since the house was outdated and didn’t have a functional floor plan that suited the couples’ passion for entertaining and cooking The kitchen was small and tucked away in a corner; the laundry room was outside; and the primary bedroom and bathroom were located in the front of the house But there was also a budget to contend with “This project required a delicate balance between our client’s design aspirations and financial boundaries,” Tina explains exploring cost-effective alternatives without compromising quality This process reinforced the principle that value engineering is not just about cost-cutting; it’s a creative optimization that ensures the design integrity while respecting financial parameters.” With keeping that balance in mind, they rearranged the floor plan and made some room swaps: the family room became the kitchen; the old kitchen became the new primary bathroom; and the old primary bathroom became the laundry room The new kitchen is bigger with doors opening to the backyard while the primary bedroom and bathroom are located in the back of the house and open to the backyard as well “There was a great deal of structural work that took place,” Shawn explains. “It is a hillside home with interior elevation changes Ensuring a seamless transition between different floor levels demanded precise spatial planning and creative use of design elements.The challenge was to integrate these subtle changes cohesively optimizing the available space and emphasizing a sense of continuity throughout the home we transformed these small level variations into opportunities to enhance the overall flow and visual appeal of the living spaces.” you either step down into the living room and dining room or step up into the new kitchen New windows were added to floor the rooms with natural light Post-modern furnishings and art complement the muted palette of hard materials “The kitchen features maple cabinets and Taj Mahal counters with a large island and curved details that opens out the backyard with the large bifold doors,” Tina adds The bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry room are located on the other side of the house. The primary bedroom features a large ensuite bathroom and a walk-in closet “The shared bathroom is in the center of the rooms and has Tadelakt walls and bejmat floors in a herringbone pattern,” says Shawn. The new laundry room is beside that with custom cabinetry and side-by-side washer and dryer. The outcome is a serene and tailored environment that flawlessly embodies the vibrant and artistic essence of the Los Angeles neighborhood and its inhabitants.” The revamped floor plan now provides more functionality And the new windows and doors both modernize the home and provide plenty of natural light and so much more delivered straight to your door every quarter Copyright ©2025 S Media International Corporation.

Conroy was an All-Scholastic pick last winter when she averaged 7.9 points per game and led the team in rebounds and assists I can play her at five different positions," Riordan said "Her versatility is going to be huge for us." Junior forward Chloe Lanza led the Lakers with 8 points and sophomore guard Liliana Parmeggiani chipped in 6 points off the bench Silver Lake returns all five starters from last year's near-upset of Oliver Ames that ended an 8-14 campaign 2 preliminary round win over Agawam last winter was the program's first playoff W since 2018 "There's a lot of talent here," said Riordan who was an assistant on the Lakers boys team last winter and coached the boys golf team this fall "It's a matter of playing together on both ends and playing with a little more confidence Couple of layups fall and they'll feel good." Silver Lake Happenings 2024 Silver Bells Festival of Lights Parade will take place on Friday © 2025 West of the I | Powered by WordPress A WordPress theme by Ravi Varma If you live in the Los Angeles area and like to catch cool indie animated shorts created by artists from around the world you need to check out the monthly Silver Lake Shorts festival which takes place at the El Cid venue (4212 Sunset Blvd We had the chance to catch up with the festival’s friendly neighborhood organizers Jared Corwin and Benjamin Sharpe to find out more about this super cool monthly outing: Animation Magazine: Can you tell us a bit about the beginnings of the Silver Lake Shorts Festival Ben Sharpe: I came up with the initial concept for the festival while I was managing El Cid and booking most of the events there I went to film school but had not really done anything with that since moving out to Los Angeles and thought that using my access to the space would be a great way to connect with the creative community The core identity has always been to feature things that are a bit more offbeat and alternative I met Jared in 2019 when I screened his short Time Enforcer that absolutely blew me away We hit it off and he connected with the vision immediately and helped refine it into what it is today We wanted to build a community of creatives that love and appreciate one another beyond the usual Hollywood networking so that’s what we did Jared Corwin: As someone with a background in film production who spent way too much money on festival submissions and then tickets to the festivals themselves I felt like COVID completely destroyed any semblance of a film community here in L.A I longed to have a place to meet new people and screen my work that wasn’t “pay to play” as so many industry events are Our monthly screenings quickly attracted a whole creative community of animation and genre film lovers who also wanted to meet more people and find that much deserved sense of validation in their work I want Silver Lake Shorts to be a ground-up community first response to the corporatization of the animation industry the reliance on outsourcing and the existential threats of AI I am so thankful for Ben for bringing me in as a partner and quickly becoming one of my very best friends I assume you have a strong interest in animation yourself … Can you tell us about your favorites I am a writer and producer in animation and have immersed myself in the medium my entire life I grew up on ’90s Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon with shows like Dexter’s Lab which quickly led to the discovery of Adult Swim but I was only thrown into that world as an adult I’d say my all-time favorite animated shows that heavily impact my sensibilities tastes and aesthetics are King of the Hill I also have to give a huge shout out to Common Side Effects but was indoctrinated into superheroes at a young age by my father and grew up on classic Spider-Man and Batman cartoons my favorite animated show is currently Invincible Jared: We get a massive amount of submissions and it’s unfortunately impossible to program every single film What we strive for in a programming block is to strike a balance between more established creators and emerging creators to make a really cohesive line up that elevates everyone we will program a Joe Bennett or Michael Cusack short alongside a high school or college animated short Since our screenings are only 90 minutes long we really love to intermix in a ton of micro-shorts (1 min or less) as interstitial shorts that allow even more filmmakers to be included in the line-up We just want any film we program to have a strong point of view and thoughtful intention We also have a call to action for filmmakers to create intro videos or interstitials using the Silver Lake Shorts logo to give a clear sense of brand identity These IDs are very much inspired by 2000s era Adult Swim Ben: Watching short submissions with Jared at his house is one of the most fun things we get to do All of the selection philosophy that Jared spoke to above is so natural to us at this point that it really just comes down to two friends sitting down and enjoying art together What are some of the most notable and popular animated shorts you have featured at the festival Girls in Real Life Situations by Ofre Sparrow Vaknin and Cage Match by Bryan Lee are several of the more popular shorts we’ve screened over the years Can you tell us about your prizes and how you support the animation talent with your enterprise Ben: We like to keep the actual events free of awards to keep everyone on equal ground however we are very pleased to have awarded a $5,000 grant to five different filmmakers in our community based on around 200 applications that we received last year for our first ever filmmaker fellowship program Each filmmaker retains the rights to their own work and we also connect each filmmaker with a mentor to help them with their project throughout the process as well as other resources to help with their production Jared: Running a monthly screening series in itself is a lot of work that we volunteer our time towards but Ben and I have really expanded our vision for what we want Silver Lake Shorts to be as a festival and more recently in the past year Since we have also started the independent filmmaker fellowship program we’re eager to find more donations and sponsorships that will allow us to continue funding original visions and diverse voices through independent filmmaking We currently have some tremendous sponsors and tons of people who really support and value what we’re building but we are always seeking more funding to sustain what we do because every bit helps Thankfully we also have a dedicated team of volunteers Associate Producers and Board Members who all help to keep Ben and I afloat Our monthly tasks include curating an hour and a half lineup of films coordinating with filmmakers and vendors for every screening meeting with potential donors and sponsors curating internal events for studios and planning expanded events like comedy shows This has basically been a full-time job of a commitment that Ben and I do out of the sheer love of it Ben: The hardest part of the job is having to go to my other job instead of working on all of this Ben: What I love the most is this community that we have created and the honor of serving it I love the opportunity that I have created to use my business skills for the benefit of art and community instead of just for shareholder value Hanging out with all of our people after a successful show each month and catching up with them not just as artists but as people always reminds me that this is a really special group of people that care about each other as humans first And when I say “our people” that is not meant to be exclusionary at all If you show up and appreciate shorts and the people that create them Jared: Silver Lake Shorts has meant everything to me It introduced me to some of my best friends and creative collaborators It’s gotten me connected to some amazingly innovative creators who are making some of the coolest animation of all time It’s gotten me work as a writer and producer in animation it’s given me a sense of purpose beyond just my own work It instilled in me a sense of duty to champion this outstanding community of independent creators equity and more opportunities of employment for the animation industry What are some of your plans for the future Ben: To continue growing our brand and the scope of what we do so that we can raise more money to fund more filmmakers and develop other services that benefit the members of our community we would like to hold more non screening events to fundraise We’ve held a screening in N.Y.C once before and would like to do more stuff outside of Los Angeles We want to expand our digital presence and plan on soon launching a large playlist of past films that creators have already made available on Youtube we just want to expand our community and convince more people of the value of creating art without the tethers of commercial intent Jared: With the industry trends going the way they’re going I believe that we need to solidify human made indie animation as a cultural institution that must be protected I believe that the non-profit system which funds opera and fine art in this country can be applied towards creator driven indie shorts and I want Silver Lake Shorts to be an institution that keeps the spirit of indie animation alive The next Silver Lake Shorts monthly screening will be held April 11 at the El Cid theater in Los Angeles.

Little League has been named the recipient of the 2024 Carl E.

Print Less than six months after All Day Baby opened Then last year came the entertainment industry strikes along with unexpected costs that made business untenable Earlier this year chef-partner Jonathan Whitener died “I never meant to do any of this by myself,” owner Lien Ta said In a year marred by tragedy and continuing financial difficulties one of L.A.’s most creative neighborhood restaurants is closing the innovative dinette-leaning restaurant inspired by Southern cuisine does not make enough money on a day-to-day basis to sustain operations “We’re literally almost out of money,” she said “All Day Baby would again have been included on the upcoming 2024 edition of the L.A Times’ 101 Best Restaurants,” says restaurant critic Bill Addison “Its constant sense of reinvention was a survival tool but the efforts led to dishes that balanced comfort and creative spark The biscuit sandwiches and loco moco were part of my own weekend breakfast rituals On Saturday morning I saw customers in tears over the community’s imminent loss.” Less than six months after its debut, the pandemic hit, hampering Whitener and Ta’s plans for a morning-to-night model. Sidewalk bake sales and other incentives helped keep the business afloat until on-site dining could return. Then, as at many restaurants and bars in the region two entertainment industry strikes in 2023 slowed clientele to a trickle and unrelated interferences and costs — such as months-long street construction or LADWP bills that tripled last year — made the business untenable “I think our ambition and our egos really led us to a lot of optimism that we could do this,” Ta said “I guess you could say I am an optimist or I don’t give up I have wrestled with this daily and nightly Bill Addison reviews All Day Baby in Silver Lake There were days during the pandemic when All Day Baby made only a few hundred dollars a day; even in the following years there were still days it would net as little Ta said that she owed thousands of dollars of back rent to the building’s landlord which had accumulated through a negotiation of partial rent payment during the pandemic When the restaurant suffered multiple break-ins within 10 days in the spring Ta approached her landlord with the hope of discussing rent reduction to offset the cost of repairs but was reminded of the outstanding amount she realized she would have to sell the business After grappling with the decision for months she told staff in October in an announcement at the restaurant; she and some of her employees were crying by the end of it “I wanted to use what little savings or what grant money we received and to be as thoughtful with the cash flow that we did have to just keep finding solutions to mend what was a really difficult operation from the start There were lots of glimmers of hope that maybe we could see it to the other side.” All Day Baby hosted multiple pop-ups and pivots throughout its five years but Ta said the most successful by far was Tet-a-Tet a restaurant-within-a-restaurant that flipped to a Vietnamese-food concept in the evenings and ran for months what was a bustling service “went dark overnight,” and maintaining later business hours with additional staff no longer made financial sense; Tet-a-Tet ended July 1 A major emotional factor in the closure remains “I think in many ways All Day Baby in a different location could totally make it “I never meant to do any of this by myself.” In February, in a shock to the Los Angeles restaurant community and beyond, Whitener died at the age of 36. The acclaimed chef is described as a brother figure to Ta, who then lost a decades-long father figure months later and is still reckoning with the losses while trying to maintain both restaurants. “To do two at the same time and to feel like I want to do it well, it’s very confusing,” she said. “It’s hard to sort of push all of that down to just get through the day.” Food Jonathan Whitener, celebrated local chef of Here’s Looking at You and All Day Baby, has died at age 36. Since posting the announcement to Instagram Friday afternoon, hundreds of comments have poured in expressing sorrow, sharing memories and even tagging elected officials in case they could help change this fate. Over the weekend guests filed in ordering tables piled with food, sometimes multiple entrées per person. By noon, Robinson’s pastry case was decimated. Ta characterized the public response as “overwhelmingly lovely and heartbreaking.” But the owner does not want to focus on the heartbreaking aspects of the restaurant’s end, at least not for the next month. “In general, I love a celebration,” Ta said. “I think it’s important. And, you know, we’re not promised tomorrow, so I think we need to maximize and squeeze out all the juice of today as we can. I definitely do not want to make this about being sad.” All Day Baby is located at 3200 Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles. Its final day of service is Dec. 15.

).setAttribute( "value" we're all fascinated by the places that get truly monster snowfalls From legendary single-day blizzards burying whole towns to mountain peaks that accumulate dozens of feet of snow in one winter the records set by these extreme snowfall events are nothing short of astounding How much snow are we talking?Consider this: one Washington State mountain witnessed 95 feet of snowfall in a single season and an Italian village once woke up to over 8 feet of snow in just 18 hours Let’s journey around the world to explore some of the most incredible meteorological snowfall records ever recorded mixing record-breaking moments with the snowiest places that Mother Nature has to offer these snowfall totals can reshape landscapes and break records Here are a few one-day snowfall feats that left meteorologists in awe: Italy (2015) This Apennine Mountains town was buried under 100.8 inches (8.4 feet) of snow in only 18 hours An intense cyclone funneling moisture into the mountains produced what was likely a world-record one-day snowfall turning the village into a surreal snow globe A legendary blizzard dropped 75.8 inches (~6.3 feet) of snow in 24 hours at Silver Lake This long-standing official 24-hour world record the storm didn’t stop there—by 32 hours In February 1963, Thompson Pass near Valdez was pummeled with 78 inches (6.5 feet) of snow in 24 hours. Alaska’s coastal mountains regularly see huge “snow dumps,” and this event showed how even at relatively low elevations the snow can pile up unbelievably fast France (1959)The European Alps have their own extreme tales 67.8 inches (~5.7 feet) fell in just 19 hours in April 1959 That’s an average of 3.5 inches of snowfall per hour during this epic alpine storm – one of Europe’s most intense on record While 24-hour records are one way to measure a storm’s fury some snowstorms earn their place in history by lingering and dumping snow for days on end These multi-day monster storms left behind phenomenal totals: a relentless storm at Mount Shasta Ski Bowl amassed 189 inches (15.75 feet) of snow This is often cited as the greatest single-storm snowfall ever recorded worldwide – imagine nearly sixteen feet of snow from one prolonged blizzard California (1982) The Sierra Nevada is famous for huge snowstorms and one in January 1982 was truly exceptional a single Pacific storm system unloaded 186.6 inches (about 15.5 feet) of snow Donner Pass in the Sierras has topped 775 inches in a season on four occasions underlining its reputation as one of North America’s snow champions Clearing cars in Buffalo after more than six feet of snow fell in 24 hours (2014) New York (2014)Even lower elevations can see astounding snow totals given the right conditions a historic lake-effect snow event near Buffalo produced storm totals approaching 7 feet in some communities neighborhood streets became canyons of snow showing that you don’t need a mountain to get buried when cold winds and warm lakes align just right Seasons for the Record BooksIt’s one thing to get a big storm but how about an entire winter of record snowfall For seasonal totals (typically measured over a snow season or calendar year) one region stands above all: the Pacific Northwest of North America where moist Pacific air slams into high peaks Two spots in Washington State have traded the title for snowiest winter ever recorded: Washington (1971–72)During the winter of 1971–72 the Paradise Ranger Station on Mount Rainier was inundated with 1,122 inches of snow (93.5 feet) set a world record that stood for over two decades The mountain’s frequent storms and 14,411-ft summit create a perfect snow trap making Paradise live up to its name for snow lovers The photo on the right shows one two of Mt Baker's chairlifts nearly buried during the record breaking Winter 98/99 season The photo on the left is sans snow for reference Mount Baker, Washington (1998–99)In 1998–99, Mount Baker Ski Area (4,200 ft elevation) shattered the record with 1,140 inches (95 feet) of snowfall over the course of the season This remains the world’s record for snowfall in a single season What’s amazing is that Mount Baker achieved this at a lower elevation than Rainier’s Paradise and perhaps a bit of meteorological luck that winter These two sites – just a few hours’ drive apart – illustrate how Washington’s Cascade Range is uniquely suited to catching prodigious snowfall when conditions are right The Deepest Snowpacks on EarthWhen snow keeps piling up over weeks and months the depth of snow on the ground reaches mind-boggling levels The deepest snowpack ever measured on Earth was recorded in Japan Ibuki (elevation ~5,000 ft) measured a snow depth of 465.4 inches – about 38.8 feet of snow standing on the ground This is the greatest recorded natural snow depth in world history that’s roughly a four-story building completely buried in snow The Sierra Nevada also produced an immense snowpack in the winter of 1911 a maximum snow depth of 451 inches (37.5 feet) was measured on March 11 which remains the United States record for snow depth that winter brought 390 inches of snow just in the month of January at Tamarack Ibuki and Tamarack records speak to winters when the snowfall was so continuous and heavy that it accumulated into an almost unbelievable snowpack The Snowiest Places on EarthExtreme snowfall isn’t just a one-time fluke – some locations are consistently the snowiest places on the planet These regions combine geography and climate in just the right way to produce astonishing snowfall year after year: The mountains of Japan’s main island are often considered the snowiest place on Earth Thanks to cold Siberian winds picking up moisture over the Sea of Japan (creating ocean-effect “powder”) parts of the Japanese Alps see an estimated 1,200 to 1,500 inches of snow each year That’s 100+ feet of snow annually in the 2,000–6,000 ft elevation zone winter roads famously cut through towering snow walls (the Yuki-no-Otani snow canyon Japan’s combination of maritime moisture and mountain terrain makes it a veritable snow factory Japan's snow walls are a popular tourist attraction Photo: Maximilian Müller/Getty Images Nestled in the Hakkōda Mountains of northern Honshu Sukayu Onsen is known as the snowiest inhabited place on Earth It averages about 17.6 meters (58 feet) of snowfall each year Sukayu had a snow depth of 566 cm (18.6 ft) on the ground and locals take pride in managing (and even celebrating) the colossal snowfall USA)This high spot on Mount Rainier’s slope is North America’s snowiest regularly inhabited location averaging around 680 inches (56½ feet) of snow each year Its unique position near the Pacific coast and elevation around 5,400 ft mean storms frequently dump snow here when lower elevations see rain It’s not unusual for Paradise to have 20 or more feet of snowpack by spring Paradise also once set the single-season record of 93.5 feet.) Looking across the Prince William Sound from Valdez Coastal Alaska rivals any place on the planet for snowfall Thompson Pass (2,678 ft) averages about 552 inches annually and has hit 974 inches in a single season in the past the town of Valdez at sea level gets about 320 inches (27 feet) of snow in an average year making it one of the snowiest sea-level locations on Earth Winters in Valdez mean constant shoveling and plowing as even moderate storms can bury the town in feet of heavy snow (Fun fact: Valdez’s sea-level snowfall even tops that of snowy coastal cities in Japan; for example Caucasus Mountains (Russia/Georgia)The high peaks along the Black Sea in the western Caucasus catch tremendous snowfall as well a mountain area at about 6,200 feet elevation in Russia’s Caucasus range has recorded snow depths up to 315 inches (26 feet) on the ground This region’s snowy reputation is why nearby Sochi (at the foot of these mountains) hosted winter athletes in the subtropics – the snow was waiting in the peaks above California set records for snowfall during the Winter '22/'23 season Mammoth remained open for skiing and snowboarding into August that year From blizzards that drop snow by the foot-per-hour to mountain slopes that stack up tens of meters of snow each winter these records highlight the most extreme snowfall our planet can produce Such feats of nature create challenges for those who live in their shadow – collapsing roofs and heroic efforts to keep roads open – but they also inspire awe and even a sense of pride Whether it’s an unexpected one-day snowfall that makes global headlines or a far-flung mountain known for nonstop powder the world’s incredible snowfall records remind us of the extraordinary power of winter in all its snowy glory From ski resort news to profiles of the world’s best skiers See why over a million readers pay to read the Financial Times.
