America's 25 Snowiest Colleges and Universities

[grizzh8r]

I saw this headline today as I was checking weather.com for the forecast and thought "I wonder where MSU sits?" Lo and behold, Montana Hall is on the front page! I suppose it's set up as a regional thing by the site webmasters to get more clicks, but it's still kinda cool.

We check in - on page 23 - at #4 @ 93.5" per year, bested only by University of Buffalo, Northern Arizona (that one kind of shocked me, but they do have us by 2000 ft or so...), and Syracuse University. Only D-1 colleges and universities were on their list.

I had no idea Buffalo got that much snow, or Northern Arizona for that matter.

I got to get out of the office more

The New York schools really don't surprise me, Lake Erie snow effect buries them. Northern Arizona did surprise me.

Chester spent a few years at RIT in rochester, ny... blizzard of '93 completely buried his car in the parking lot. most of the NY Thruway between buffalo and syracuse was shutdown. snow drifts reached the 2nd floor of some of the dorms... ppl were sledding out the windows.

I was going off of Buffalo for my Lake Erie post, I was not sure of where the other schools actually were located. And Buffalo seems to atttract quite a bit of the white stuff.

NAU doesn't surprise me at all. Elevation is nearly 7000 feet.
