Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has exceeded the 30-year average by approximately 12.5%, indicating a recent upward trend.

The current season's snowfall is substantially below both the 5-year and 30-year averages, at just 49% and 55% of those benchmarks, respectively, marking a sharp decline from recent patterns. This suggests increased volatility and a significant short-term anomaly in the most recent season.
