Other than keeping tabs myself, where can I find out how much average snow we get here ?


This chart is helpful, but it doesn't include where I live

http://www.currentresults.com/Weathe...l-snowfall.php

I guess this one says that we get 18-30" annually

We are on the shore of Lake Michigan, slightly south and west of Grand Rapids. Our avg snow fall is 75", although just depends on where you look, 80-100 is a more realistic number depending on how the lake effect machine works. I have accounts on one side of town that may have just a dusting, and 10 miles away on the other end of town, could have 4-6 inches.

We get on avg 120-130" a year. Although it seems to have been down around the 90-110`` the last couple years. Our worst or best year ever was 1995 when we got 209`` with 64`` of that falling in a 5 day period and 28`` in one day all before Christmas. That was dare I say too much too fast.
