5-Yr Avg by Now
Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has slightly exceeded the 30-year average, indicating a modest upward trend in recent seasons. However, the current season's snowfall is notably below both the 5-year and 30-year averages, at only 90% and 94% of those benchmarks, respectively. The 2023 season stands out as an anomaly with exceptionally high snowfall, while other recent years have remained closer to long-term norms. This variability suggests increased fluctuations in annual snowfall, with the current season marking a return to below-average conditions.
