Snow Totals and Events

Posted: 20 Mar 2013 05:42 AM

2012 has been on the snowier side of average for Des Moines with around 45 total inches reported. This snow has fallen from a total of around 15 snowfall events (assuming back to back days with snow are one event and not counting trace daily totals). The featured chart displays the yearly combination of total snowfall and number of events. The year shown denotes the year of the first half of the winter season. Of the past 10 years, 5 of them are labelled as on the extremes of this chart. It does not appear that we are done adding to the totals shown in this chart with another potential snow storm for Iowa this coming weekend.

Voting:
Good = 30
Bad = 5
