5-Yr Avg by Now

Recent snowfall has been highly variable, with the past five years showing significant fluctuations between low and high snowfall seasons. The current season's snowfall is 175% above the 5-year average and 238% above the 30-year average, indicating an exceptional anomaly compared to both short- and long-term trends. While the 5-year average is already higher than the 30-year average, suggesting a possible upward trend, the current season stands out as an outlier well above historical norms. This recent spike may skew short-term averages and should be monitored for persistence in future seasons.
