5-Yr Avg by Now
Over the past five years, average seasonal snowfall has been substantially higher than the 30-year average, indicating a marked upward trend. The most recent season, however, saw a significant drop, with snowfall 55% below the 5-year average and 82% below the 30-year average, representing a sharp anomaly compared to recent patterns. This suggests increased variability, with the current season standing out as an unusually low outlier following several years of above-average snowfall.
