  50cm of snow is considered a decades worth? That doesn’t make sense.

    I don’t get it either. I’ve lived in places in the US that got 50-80 cm in a couple of days several times a season.

    50cm for the month of December. This particular storm dropped 8 inches.

      The article even says that the storm they got is roughly 1/5th of the standard December snow.

      So they got a bit less than 1-week's worth of snow in a day.

      "Decades" and 1-week's worth are not the same thing.
