5-Yr Avg by Now

Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has increased to 632.2 cm, notably higher than the 30-year average of 492.0 cm, indicating a recent upward trend. The 2022 season stands out as a significant anomaly with 1280.5 cm, more than double the 5-year average, while other years remain closer to or below the average. The current season's snowfall is 67% of the recent 5-year average and 86% of the 30-year average, reflecting a marked decrease from recent highs and falling below both short- and long-term norms. This suggests heightened variability in recent years, with the current season representing a downturn following an exceptional peak.
