Ok, that's ridiculous. Obviously the creators of this scale are missing some pertinent details. For instance, regarding 1978, if you look at that chart again you will see a "crippling" storm in January of that year. There was still a TON of snow on the ground from that first storm when the blizzard of '78 hit.
