Early April snow can be expected in Ottawa, as can its rapid melting.
While this year's mid-February was the greatest one day snowstorm recorded in Ottawa at the airport it wasn't the greatest snowstorm. That was the 3-5 April 1885 event of 101.6 cm. The 6 April 1885 snow pile on Sparks Street in this photo from the LAC collection provides evidence.
