Snow after Groundhog Day

Posted: 05 Feb 2013 05:10 AM

Punxsutawney Phil comes out of his den on Groundhog's Day to make an important forecast for the spring season. The featured top chart presents the number of snow days for Ames before and after 2 February each winter season. The bottom chart is simply the yearly total of snow days after 2 Feb. Neither chart appears to show a meaningful trend, but does indicate that we have on average just under 10 snow days yet to go this winter season.

Voting:
Good = 23
Bad = 4
