Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has declined compared to the 30-year average, with the 5-year mean at 236.2 cm versus the long-term average of 254.1 cm, indicating a downward trend. Despite this, the most recent season saw a notable increase, reaching 123% of the 5-year average and 114% of the 30-year average, marking it as an anomalously high snowfall year relative to recent history. This suggests increased variability, with the current season standing out as a significant positive deviation from the prevailing downward trend.
