5-Yr Avg by Now

Recent snowfall has trended below both the 5-year and 30-year historical averages, with the current season reaching only 67% of the 5-year and 64% of the 30-year norms. The 5-year average itself (178.0 cm) is slightly lower than the long-term 30-year average (184.2 cm), indicating a modest downward trend in seasonal snowfall. No extreme anomalies are evident in the past five years, but the consistent shortfall relative to historical averages suggests a period of reduced snowfall.
