Depends what you want to define as a "city". Check out the related link for an article on nearly the same question (but including Alaska, which actually doesn't feature many cities in the top 10 for various reasons).

Marquette, MI: about 140"

Sault Ste. Marie, MI: about 120"

Syracuse, NY: about 125"

Flagstaff, AZ: 115"

Some people like to include Blue Canyon, CA, though it's essentially a ski resort. Its annual average is about 240".

For actual cities, Syracuse, NY usually gets the crown. It's worth noting that Syracuse is relatively low in terms of elevation and in some cases a 20 mile trip north, south, east or west of the city can yield 1200+ increase in elevation. Areas like Tully, a small town to the south of the city, get significantly more snow than Syracuse does.

Why do Americans get a snow day when they have an inch of snow?

Not all schools receive snow days just because there is snow on the ground. For instance in the northern part of the country where cities often get heavy or large amounts of snow are more prepared (they have supplies of sand and/or salt to deal with ice as well as many trucks equipped with snow plows). The amount of snow necessary to close schools and businesses could be quite high and usually only happens when it is too dangerous for vehicles to drive until snow can be cleared as much as possible. The southern states which don't receive much snow and therefore don't really need these supplies in large amounts and therefore don't have them readily available for large storms which is why they are more likely to have snow days with very minimal snow on the ground. It could also be that there isn't much snow but the roads are very icy.


Why do some cities have cold snowy winters while others cities never get snow?

It has to do with were the city is placed, if its in Arizona, snow isn't to be expected, if you live in north Canada when winter time comes around you'll get inches of snow.
