5-Yr Avg by Now

Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has exceeded the 30-year average by nearly 10%, indicating a modest upward trend in recent snowfall. However, the data also reveals significant year-to-year variability, with snowfall ranging from a low of 80.3 cm in 2020 to a high of 310.7 cm in 2023. The most recent season saw a sharp decline to 100 cm, which is 36% below the 5-year average and 39% below the 30-year average, marking a notable anomaly after last year's peak. This suggests that while the longer-term trend has been slightly positive, recent seasons have experienced pronounced fluctuations and a significant short-term decrease.
