WTG Buffalo on receiving now measurable snow so far this season breaking the old record for no snow this late in the season. Keep it up Buffalo 😉
Buffalo National Weather Service Statement – “It’s official, Buffalo has set a new record for the latest measurable snow. The previous record was December 3rd, set back in 1899. We will continue to add to this record for many days to come, with no cold or snow expected for at least the next 10 days. Here is the 6-10 day forecast, showing very high chances for above normal temperatures to last for much of the nation through the middle of December.”.
As of the last update, all of the Golden Snowball cities are behind what the average snowfall totals should be and WAY behind what we all had at this time last season. From reading around, it looks like the snow may hold off through at least the next couple of weeks butttt… A snow dance is in the works so that will probably change 😉
Have a Great night everyone!
What is Buffalo’s least snowiest season total ? This 2015-16 just might break that one as well…
If what I found is right Rick it will be quite an accomplishment. The NWS shows that in the 1918 – 1919 season Buffalo only received 25.0 inches of snow 🙂 I’m not sure where they measured back then though. Just a few storms and you can pass that. Then again, the way this season is going who knows..
Thank you for responding with the data. This truly is an astonishingly lackluster snow season, especially when Chicago is beating you with 12.4″ (and nearby northern suburbs with 20″+) so far! I was expecting yesterday’s “plume” to migrate further north, but it just didn’t happen! Sorry!
