Jan 31 Herald article about the snow storm, Dave Ramstad collection
Perhaps the biggest snow storm in Everett history starting January 31 for three days in 1916, dumping 30 inches in Everett. Here are some photos from that time. Meanwhile, in Seattle the dome of St James Cathedral came crashing down due to the massive weight of the wet snow (fortunately with no injuries).
100 years later, we enjoy 45 degree weather!
