As of Friday we have had 224.0 cm and although last year at this time we only had 208.5 cm, over March 7th, 8th, and 9th of last year we had a total of 37.5 cm.
Ironically we might get the same amount of precipitation this weekend, however it will be wet rather than the white.
Although no big storms are in the forecast, we always seem to get that one big snowfall sometime in March when you think winter is over. Around here we call this the "Fassnacht" snowstorm, after the person in the office who always predicted it would come and as he is now the president of the Eastern Snow Conference maybe we should listen to him.
As we can easily get snow in April I'm not willing to call an end to the snowfall season just yet, but it looks doubtful that we will set another record this year. Right now we are 5th on the all time snowfall total.
Here are the current top 5 highest snowfall season totals for the area:
2007-08
257.5 cm
1923-1924
245.3 cm
1942-43
