    When a large quantity of snow falls it gets cleared with huge plow trucks and heavy machinery, sometimes huge plows attached to the heavy machinery. Think enormous front loaders and stuff. Some places will load it into dump trucks and dump it into a body of water.

    I live in VT and the most I’ve seen at once was 40” or so. But here it’s usually elevation dependent and the cities are in low valleys where they’ll get a few inches and the mountains 30 minutes up the road will get two feet.
