Hello Chitra...

Hope you are well there in your south Indian town...

Regarding your request to correct the sentencses..anyone can help you in his/her spare time while browsing this site...but it is better to keep in mind that if you need a sincere feedback/reply for your questions in you posts...you may limit your sentences to on or two per post so that anyone who is willing to help you will consider doing it for you..otherwise...if you give a long list of questions like a quesion paper in an exam hall....it will be too time-consuming for them..

Now..coming to your first sentence..

Since for the past 4 years it has never been snowed as it was in this year.....this year it was severe snow shower.

Since four years it had never been snowed as it has been in this year.....this year it is/has been a severe snow shower. (this year is still running..so it should be Present Continuous tense)

Hope you will get more corrections for your more questions from others..
