You wouldn't be able to pin this kind of record down in a specific place at a specific time. But the highest snowfall rates tend to occur in the heaviest lake effect snow bands and are accompanied by thunder and lightning. This light fluffy snow can accumulate up to about 7-8" in one hour, though rarely does it last for even that long. It would be really hard, for complex physical reasons, to snow much more than that.
