How many snow storm this season in Boston MA?

Answer 1

Most snow for a season = 107.6" (1995-1996)

Most snow in 1 day = 27.5" (2/17/2003)

Most snow in 2 days = 29.1" (2/17/2003 - 2/18/2003, "President's Day Snowstorm")

Average snowfall per year = 41.3"

although feb 2003, pd II is listed as 27.3 , it has been noted that this value was a result of innaccurate measurements ( standard to measure snowfall in 6 hr increments, clearing a board of snow at the end of a 6 hr period, all 6 hour snow measurements added to get total snowfall total). Also the blizz of 78 value reflects the snow depth at the end of the storm indicating that there easily could have been more than 27.1" if proper measurement techniques were taken)

Answer 2

It really varies: it is a truism that Boston's weather is very changeable. Some years, Boston has hardly any snow. Some years, Boston gets several large storms and not much more than that. And some years, it snows a lot, such as in the Blizzard of 1978. In 2012, Boston had several winter months of unseasonably warm weather and hardly any snow at all -- for example, in December of that year, there was only 3" of snow the entire month. In January 2013, there was even less-- 1", and several days when temperatures soared to 60 degrees, leaving ski lodges wondering if they would do any business at all. But that all changed in February 2013, when there were several big storms that left a total of 34", more than making up for the previous lows.
