What the National Weather Service wrote

Snowfall estimates at the Mill Creek Summit SNOTEL sites were 35 inches.

The wider storm

The third straight week of heavy snow and winds brought another round of significant snowfall and strong winds. Most of the heavy snowfall was in the mountains but the 40 to 60 mph wind gusts were widespread as were road closures and school closings through the period. None of the breaks were longer than half a day so it was all considered one event.
