Reversed Snowfall Departures

Posted: 07 Mar 2019 05:34 AM

The featured chart presents the season to date snowfall departures for first-order sites reported by the NWS. The chart shows the reversal that happened for most sites in the state going from negative departures in mid January to large positive departures by late February. The only hold out for this plot is Sioux City, which is currently a few inches below long term average. The first of two snow storms will impact southern Iowa today with the major storm this weekend bringing the most snow to northwestern Iowa, so Sioux City should join the rest of the state in positive territory.
