Show Notes
It had been a fairly snowy winter across Kansas and Missouri in the 1911-1912 winter season. By the later stages of March, Kansas City already had recorded more than 20” of snow including 15” earlier in March alone. Snow began to fall in the afternoon of the 23rd and by the time it ended on the evening of March 24, 1912 Kansas City experienced its greatest recorded snowstorm. 25” fell in 24 hours bringing the total snowfall there to more than 40” for March and 67” for the winter more than 4 times normal. Both the March and seasonal snowfall totals were records for Kansas City. Not far away in Olathe, KS 38” fell during that storm, a single storm state record.
