CBS News
"According to Environment Canada, Montreal was covered by a record-breaking 47 centimetres of snow on Thursday. "It's a historical storm," said Réné Héroux from Environment Canada. "We've never had this much snow in a day. In 1971, there was a lot of snow, but it was over more than a day." The snowfall surpassed the previous daily record established in March 1971 by two centimetres." (h/t Tom Nelson)
