It was 2016. I was in the same situation as the OP - no way I was going to make it back, could have either stayed where I was or overnighted at a connection point. I had three days' advance warning of the storm to make alternate arrangements before my original flight.

Pretty sure that's the most recent snowstorm in that area of the size the OP is describing - 6.5 years ago is kind of late to complain.
