February 2015 Observations and Discussion

[Hawkeye]

14.3 inches of snow here in February, which is pretty solid, although it all came in two storms.  Last February had 17.7 inches from seven storms.  Our record snowy February was 28 inches in 2008.

Average is about 48". So far just about half of the 30 year average and that includes a freak November.

Wow, for central WI that's really low! That's probably a closer average for areas 300-400 miles south.

Hope you don't hurt for moisture this spring.
