Snowfall Measurement Policy

The following is a link to the official NWS Snowfall Measurement Policy: Snow Measurement Guidelines. Please note that while giving your reports to the office every few inches still is the local reporting criteria, it is important to not clear off your measuring surface for 6 hours. Taking a new value every 2 hours and clearing it off, for example, will give inflated reports.


The National Digital Forecast Database (NDFD)

Our local climate page has been redesigned and moved as a part of a national standardization effort. A transition document (PDF) is available to show where information from our old climate page is located on the new climate page.
