OrdIowPitMsp Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 You can really see areas up north are struggling this year in the snow department. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclone77 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 A bit over 32" here. Amounts go up quickly west of here, with MLI over 40", Cedar Rapids over 50". We average somewhere between 30-35" a season so we're already at average for the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York looks like its doing good but everyone in Upstate is well below normal aside from Binghamton and Albany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Areas of east TX and LA have had more snow on the season then International Falls MN! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's right. INL has 36.5" on the season (it's in the first post). It may be the case for that sliver of northern MN west of there.

beavis1729 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Great post, ChicagoWx. Crazy to see that ORD and RFD both have more snow on the ground than INL...and that ORD has had 12.5" more snow than RFD so far. Bismarck ND has only had 13.7" of snow for the season. Even less than that, in parts of ND north and west of there...but I can't find any climo sites in that area with snowfall data. Williston ND has probably had less than 10"...hard to believe. The frustration I've always had with our climo isn't so much average snowfall...although of course 50" would be nice instead of 40". It's the lack of consistency, due to the fact that our average temps are just too warm. Even in January (assuming a normal distribution), half of our days are in the 30s or warmer. But even I must admit that western ND would be much much worse. Average DJF temps are definitely colder than here, but there are so many ups and downs due to the chinook. That would drive me crazy. And, there's just too little snowfall there. I've been to Theodore Roosevelt National Park, in that area...a great place in the warm season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madwx Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 snow depth got up to 16" here this morning which should be our max for the season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrdIowPitMsp Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Hopefully things improve up north for my spring trip to Lutsen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
