Anyone know where to find record minimum for least amount of snow yearly? Always wondered what regions our stations mon has been.

"Harrisburg top 5 least snowy years:

1937-38 8.8 INCHES

1994-95 9.0 INCHES

1949-50 9.8 INCHES

1930-31 10.3 INCHES

1997-98 10.9 INCHES

Top 5 snowiest years:

1960-61 81.3 INCHES

1995-96 77.6 INCHES

1993-94 75.9 INCHES

1963-64 74.7 INCHES

1977-78 70.6 INCHES"

found this in old annual summary from 2005... need to check totals for recent years though... 2006 saw 5.7" in entire calendar year but I think Dec 05 had enough to put it over... I have been working on creating a file with Harrisburg precip data... mostly done with rain portion but not far yet on snow

I'm amazed 73-74 (or is it 72-73 one of them really sucked) is not on there.

I was in PIttsburgh and 92-93, 93-94 and 95-96 were fantastic snow seasons in central/western PA. 94-95 stood out like a sore thumb because it was such a stinker.

In January 96 when we had that brutel cold and the flooding, we (Fire Dept) could not gain access to some roads along the river. I had to walk from about the George Wade Bridge to the Rockville bridge on the back road the runs paralel to the river, to house up there. It was 8ish at night and the ice from the river was deposited on the road. we had to carry all our stuff with us. what a fun trip. it was dead silent and you could actually hear the ice moaning, groaning and creeking as it moved. Eriee sounds. It took us hours to walk up and back and to mitigate the problem.

Just to add item of interest...

in 60-61, 59.2" of the 81.3" occured after Jan 1 (72.3%)...

in 95-96, 52.1" of the 77.6" occured after Jan 1 (67.1%)...

in 93-94, 75" of the 75.9" occured after Jan 1 (98.8%)...

in 63-64, 58.9" of the 74.7" occured after Jan 1 (78.8%)...

and in 77-78, 63.6" of the 70.6" occured after Jan 1 (90.1%)...

not saying this year has any link to patterns of those years but maybe a glimmer of hope to those thinking they will never see snow this winter... still a long way to go

There are few things creepier on this earth than the sound of ice moving on the Susky.
