An Unusual Snow Season

As the snow season begins to wrap up around the Stateline (knock on wood), a quick glance at the numbers doesn't hint at anything unusual, but we all know that statement is far from the truth.

Take a look at the timing of our snow this season.We saw virtually no snow through Decemeber and January, the two months that typically see the most accumulation. December saw 2.1" of snow... January saw 2.7". February and March, which historically sees less accumulation, saw the bulk of this season's snow.

2012-2013 Snowfall Compared to the Average

Here's a look at the official snow rankings for this past snow season:

December 2012: 23rd least snowiest December on record.
January 2013: 20th least snowiest December on record.
February 2013: Tied for the third snowiest February on record.
March 2013: On pace to become the 11th snowiest March on record.
