New
Year's Eve Snow Storm
2000
|
Another in a series of winter storms affected the
region on New Year's Eve. The difference in this storm was that the
bulk of the precipitation fell as snow instead of sleet and freezing
rain. Snowfall amounts varied from a dusting to an inch over the Toledo
Bend Country and central Louisiana to as much as 3 to 6 inches generally
north of interstate 20. A few 7 inch amounts were noted in southwest
Arkansas. The official 2.2 inches at the Shreveport Regional Airport
was the highest daily total snowfall in Shreveport since February 1st
of 1985 when 4.4 inches of snow was recorded.
