I got an interesting email from Larry at the NWS Wakefield office about Richmond historical winter snow totals. See the email below:<\/p>\n
“We have recorded at trace of snow thus far this season at Richmond (the only season that finished with just a trace is 1918-19). The 2nd lowest amount in a season was 0.5” in 1944-45. For “seasonal snowfall” the entire season is considered so we will need to have no measurable snow for Feb, Mar, Apr this year to tie the 1918-19 season. Recently in 2006-07, we had just 0.3″ by the end of March…appeared to be set to have the 2nd lowest snowfall season on record…until Easter Sunday in April recorded 1.0″ making the seasonal total 1.3″…9th lowest.”<\/p>\n
Very interesting.<\/p>\n
