From the Nov. 24, 1989 edition of the Vineyard Gazette:
The holiday season opened on the Vineyard with a rare and heavy snowfall early Thanksgiving morning. By sunrise the first snowstorm of late autumn measured six inches and it was still coming.
The freak storm, which dumped more than eight inches on the Island before it was over, became a memorable backdrop to many family celebrations, and added interest for people who had to work this Thanksgiving Day.
