How about 2009-2010 and 2010-2011, 2-3 major blizzards every week!
February 2010 made the 2009-2010 winter season pretty significant. I recall us getting 12-13 inches in a storm that lasted all day February 10th into the 11th and another 13-14 inches in a storm that lasted February 25th into the 26th. It was the first time NYC schools closed twice in a month for snow (February 10th & 26th). For some reason the 09-10 winter season gets overlooked.
2011 was pretty bad as well as op stated. Not a lot of snow at once (except the Dec 26th storm). It was just one storm on top if another.
Also the 2008-2009 winter season was bad for people by the Jersey shore and in the southern part of the state I believe.
In 2003 we had the big Presidents Day storm with close to 2 feet of snow. Also in 2006 I believe we had a significant winter storm on Lincoln's Birthday.
The bad one was 95-96, not 96-97. My friend had her baby during one of the storms in 1/96. We had 2 * 2+' within a week or two. There was snow in parking lots until May.
Apparently 78 was a biggie but I don't remember it.

The 2009-2010 I did my student teaching. Interesting story. I didn't have a car at the time. Most of the kids get picked up. All of the regular teacher decided to up and leave before it got bad. I was sitting in the gym with about 20 kids, three other student teachers, and three subs. Really made me feel important. The best is I asked everyone remaining for a ride home and no one offered. I had to wait an hour in a blizzard for a bus. That was like a Wednesday. School got closed the next two days.
I was very young, but I remember 93-94 being bad and my birthday party being canceled.
This year is bad but not as bad as I remembered a few years back when every weekend there was a blizzard for 2 months straight.
I'm pretty sure 2010-2011 was one of the worst. As a poster said, it wasn't the amount snow produced, more of the fact that we had a snowstorm every week. It also stayed cold until mid-April, and then warmed up to be one of the hottest summers on record.
The following year we had a very mild winter, but I remember a particularly cooler and rainy spring leading into summer.
