The storm was also nicknamed the "Storm of the Century" in Quebec. The event included the worst 24-hour snowfall on record in the city of Montreal with 43 centimetres (16.9 inches) of snow falling on March 4, for a total of 47 centimetres (18.5 inches), until the one-day record was broken again on December 27, 2012. Higher terrain in eastern Quebec received as much as 80 centimetres (31.5 inches). Heavy snowfall was also recorded in eastern Ontario and northern New Brunswick as well as parts of the Northeastern United States.

| - La tempête de neige du 3 au 5 mars 1971 sur l’est du Canada est un événement météorologique exceptionnel qui a affecté le Sud du Québec, les Provinces de l'Atlantique canadiennes et l’extrême Nord-Est des États-Unis. Bien que la tempête n’ait pas été celle qui a donné le plus de neige au cours du XXe siècle, la combinaison de la neige, des vents et de la poudrerie (chasse-neige élevée) lui a valu le surnom de « Tempête du siècle ». Ainsi, dans la seule région de Montréal, 17 personnes sont mortes, les bris aux fils de transport de l'électricité ont privé de courant certains secteurs jusqu'à 10 jours et les vents soufflant à 110 km/h poussèrent des bancs de neige jusqu'au deuxième étage des maisons.
