How Does This Winter Compare To Past Winter So Far?

Winter technically didn't begin until December 21.  Yet the winter cold and snow started long before the solstice as it usually does.  This year has a bit different as it was continuously cold for longer (Thanksgiving to December 15) than in any early winter since 1958!


December cold was widespread across the northern and eastern parts of the US.  Well above normal west.

Snowfall has been well above normal across these areas:



Locally across northern Ohio, snowfall is at levels (through the first of year) unseen since 2021.
