Does anyone know the average snowfall amount for cities like Stockholm and Oslo? Because their is no info on either city's snowfall amount on the Wiki weatherbox. So because of that, I am using https://weatherspark.com to compare cities and Oslo seems to average more snow than Syracuse, New York by a margin. Though Stockholm seems to have less than half the amount of snow of either city. However, Helsinki is between Stockholm and Oslo when it comes to the amount of snow it receives, and according to Wikipedia, Helsinki only receives 74 cm of snow a year on average. I can't see Stockholm average well-below 74 cm, but I also can't see Oslo averaging like 320+ cm.


So does anyone have any data on this?

Oslo currently has 150cm of snow. I think that speaks for itself.

So what does that mean for Stockholm? They barely receive any snow compare to Oslo. In fact, according to Weathersparks, Stockholm receives less snow than even Philadelphia while Oslo receives more than cities like Erie or Moscow. In fact, Oslo receives about triple the amount of snow Erie, Pennsylvania does according to Weathersparks.
