What happened in White Juan?

Answer 1

White Juan is the unofficial name given to a blizzard that hit Atlantic Canada just 5 mos after it was hit by one of its worst hurricanes in its history, Hurricane Juan. Satellite photos show the blizzard looking very much like a hurricane, hence the name.

Some places received as much as 101.2 cm (or 4 feet) in snow. Blowing snow created situations where people couldn't get out of their houses and had to be dug out. A state of emergency was declared and curfew to allow for snow removal. In hard hit areas, communities were shut down for days (some places up to a week). There was so much snow, they started to run out of places to put it and had to get special permission to dump it into the Ocean.

27 people died as a result of the blizzard.
