There has not been much snow in a lot of the Southeast this year in spite of plenty of precipitation because the temperatures have just been too warm when the moisture was in place. So you might enjoy reading about some of the most extreme blizzards that have occurred in history, including a couple that happened in the Southeast. I can think of some other ones that occurred in the Midwest that are not listed here in this article in History Facts as well: https://historyfacts.com/science-industry/article/the-most-extreme-blizzards-in-history/.
