A look at the monthly snowfall totals. Highlighted which month is the snowiest so far.
13 Still have November as the snowiest. Allentown, Bridgeport, Islip, JFK, LGA, NYC, Newark, Philly, Providence, Scranton, Williamsport. What's crazy is that it's not a lot for some and this winter still cant beat Mid November!
December for Virginias & NC
Buffalo...Over 5 feet in January!
Caribou...Crazy
South Bend...2 feet in January
Lincoln Nebraska...Big January
Valdez currently has 48" of snow on the ground. Have no idea how much they've had for the year, as this running total or seasonal stat doesn't seem to be available anymore.
We've had the most snow here since the near-record winter of 2007-2008 when we got 420 cm or 165 inches.
That winter my backyard fence which is 5 feet or 1.5 m high was completely covered in snow at one point.
Right now we're way below that with 53 cm on the ground or 20 inches. So about a third of the way up the fence. We have had quite a bit of melting as week or 10 days ago the depth was 85 cm or about 35 inches.
So far for the season we're already close to our total average. We're around 205 cm (80 in) whereas the average is about 220 cm (85 in).
The breakdown by month is weird. November, which in some years is relatively snow-free here, actually had more snow than December. In January we broke the monthly snowfall record with more than double the average amount.
Nov 63 cm (25 in)
Dec 27 cm (10 in)
Jan 101 cm (40 in)
Feb 23 cm (9 in) - so far
BTW that storm coming up the middle of the continent is currently forecast to dump 30-40 cm (10-15 in) of snow on us Tuesday and Wednesday. We'll see what happens.
Season Total: 11.0"
Current Snow Depth: 1.5" of icy slush
