30-Yr Avg by Now

Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has exceeded the 30-year average by approximately 9%, indicating a modest upward trend in recent seasons. However, snowfall has been highly variable, with a significant spike in 2023 (442.8 cm) and a notable low in 2020 (134.6 cm). The current season’s snowfall is substantially below both the 5-year and 30-year averages, at just 49% and 53% of those benchmarks, respectively, marking a significant anomaly compared to recent trends. This suggests increased volatility in snowfall patterns, with the current season representing a sharp decline from recent highs.
