Large Snowfall Departure Differences
Posted: 18 Mar 2022 05:30 AM
It is always a good time to check in on season to date snowfall departures. The featured map does as
such using the NWS CLImate reporting sites. Positive departures (more snowfall than average) are
shown in blue and negative (less snowfall than average) departures in red. There's a considerable
gradient shown over Iowa with the Des Moines area not too far from average, but Dubuque and
especially Sioux City well below average. A very wet storm system is impacting Iowa this Friday, but
the location of any snowfall remains in doubt as temperatures are closely hovering near freezing.
