I dont disagree it's just weird how the cold seems to always push the moisture down now or we have a Great Lakes Low, or the air is too dry. Its like baking a cake but we almost always have a missing ingredient
The foothills have averaged between 8-12 (sometimes more) inches of snow per decade generally until recently. For this decade so far we are averaging 3.5.
I urge all of you to look at climatology on webber weather to see how winters used to be.
