In many of the big cities of the Northeast, almost no snow fell. The mountains saw up to 50 to 100 inches less than average.
The winter that wasn’t is all but done in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, except for perhaps a few of the coldest locations in the mountains. If any more snow falls, it probably won’t be enough to change what will go down in history as the least snowy winter on record in many parts of the region.Much of the Interstate 95 corridor from Richmond to Boston, including Washington, saw either its least snowy, or among its least snowy winters on record.
Washington, D.C.’s 0.4 inches, as measured at Reagan National Airport, tied for the third-least snowy on record behind two winters that each registered 0.1 inches. New York City’s Central Park posted only 2.3 inches for the entire winter, below the previous record minimum of 2.8 inches in 1972-73. Its seasonal average is just shy of 30 inches.Boston received just 12.4 inches. That’s more than 36 inches below average and the fourth lowest on record.
Elkins, W.Va., was among the mountainous areas that saw historically low snowfall totals. At an elevation of around 2,000 feet, the city had its least snow on record, with just 15.3 inches compared to an average of 69.6 inches. Elkins has seen seven winters with 100 or more inches of snow since 1900.
