November 27 - The 1977 Grey Cup "Ice Bowl"

The blizzard of 1977 hit western New York as well as southern Ontario from January 28 to February 1. Daily winds gusted over 110km/h (up to 70 mph). Snowfall totals in some areas were as much as 100 inches...that’s over 2.5 METERS PLUS drifts as high as 30 to 40 ft!!. Then the next day a severe temperature drop turned the wet melted snow all over the field to a solid sheet of ice!!
