Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has been significantly higher than the 30-year average, indicating an upward trend in recent snowfall. The 2022 season stands out as an anomaly with 317.4 cm, well above both the short- and long-term averages. Despite a slight decrease in the most recent two seasons, snowfall remains elevated compared to historical norms, with the current 5-year average exceeding the 30-year average by over 20%. This suggests increased snowfall variability and a notable shift toward higher accumulation in recent years.
