30-Yr Avg by Now
Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has exceeded the 30-year average by approximately 15%, indicating a recent upward trend. However, the current season's snowfall is significantly below both the 5-year and 30-year averages, at only 65% and 75% of those benchmarks, respectively. The data also reveals considerable year-to-year variability, with 2023 standing out as an anomalously high snowfall year, more than double the current season's total. This recent decline suggests increased volatility and a notable short-term decrease following a period of above-average snowfall.
