I guess I'm not an expert on snow

Not that I feel any shame. I try to get as far away from snow as I can, without leaving the warmth of my home. I might have been a bear or groundhog in a previous life.

Italy really got the most snow in one day? What is it about the Italian Alps? I've been reading "Beneath a scarlet sky," which is about a young man who left Milan because of the bombing in the 1940s, and went into the Alps. He ended up leading hundreds of Italian Jews to safety across the Swiss border. Yep, at one point he was trapped by an avalanche.

All in all, Italy would not be a bad country to be trapped in these days. The 1940s were another story. ,yikes>
