A strong October for snowfall didn’t last in many areas of the Lower 48.
Much of the Midwest, Northeast and West has had a snowfall deficit so far this season.
Snow is ahead for some areas that are below average for snowfall.
Snowfall started off strong in October, but the pace has not kept up through November and the beginning of December, which has led to some surprising areas that are lacking.
North America’s October snow cover was the most since records began in 1967, according to David Robinson from the Rutgers University Global Snow Lab. Snow fell as far south as parts of Texas.
As expected, the greatest amount of snowfall so far this season has fallen throughout the Rockies, Cascades and into parts of the upper Midwest, northern New York and northern New England.
