"Oh the good old days at Fort Drum... I arrived in December and it was 40F and I thought this ain't so bad... then the first weekend the heavens opened up leaving my Explorer a slight bump in the parking lot and temperatures dropping to -60F. BRRR... I remember one 24 hour period we got 44" of snow... It would have been the most in the country that day, except Buffalo got 46"... I eventually left Fort Drum through a white out snow storm from Adams to Syracuse... Once past Syracuse, it was blue sky and beautiful.."

Very strange. I've steamed past Fort Drum a few times, but not since the '80s. I certainly can't recall it being down to -60.....C OR F. More like 30s C, just like usually is around Maniila Bay,or the rest of the Philippines, for that matter. Can't say I remember seeing any snow there....Nearest is probably Mt Fuji.
