According to tables etc available at

http://www.nws.noaa.gov/climate/index.php?wfo=pafg

Valdez, a low-level station in Alaska currently has a snow depth of 75
inches or 190.5 cm, which is down a touch from 12th Jan when they were
reporting 84 inches or 213 cm, that's 7 feet of snow. Imagine that in
southern England!

Yep! January 1963. Mid Hampshire. Over 12 feet (144", 365cm) [in the
drifts].
