Epic snow season. Pretty much ideal. Several big storms, some lighter falls mixed in, no lengthy snow pack, early/late season snows, etc.

There are three major snow pile storage areas in Umeå, and a fourth is being built. At these places the snow lasts well into summer, and there are workers driving diggers who dig out the snow from underneath the isolating layers of gravel and dirt to make the snow melt quicker. This winter saw a record amount of snow in Umeå though, 1.5 million cubic meters of snow was transported to these storage areas, and I read a couple articles today about how the snow likely won't manage to melt away this summer, despite the municipality's greatest efforts of accellerating the snow melt. There are plans to possibly start dumping snow into the river, and a grant was given by the county to do so (of course the snow would have to be cleaned  bedore being dumped so that it's not dirty). Picture I took of one of the snow piles on June 23rd.

Just 0.4” (1 cm) so far here on November 1st.

Normal is 8” (20 cm) by now, last year already had 20.8” (53 cm).

Last time with this little was 2016, before that 2008. And no snow in the forecast either.

Wow, damn impressive snowfall for 661m amsl at 31S. Wtf.

Picked up another 7cm of snow yesterday afternoon.
Total since nov 10 is 36cm.

Time to get this going for 2021-22. Had our first trace of snow on Saturday, which didn't even accumulate to 0.1". Yesterday we received 0.2" and another 0.5" overnight. Chance of 60F this week so this will quickly be gone

First major storm tonight. About 2.5" of accumulation so far . November total stands at 3.2". 

Through the end of November:

September:   0”
October:     Trace
November:  0.7” (2 cm)

Total:         0.7” (2 cm)
Normal td: 12.4” (31 cm)

That’s a fucking pitiful 6% of normal snowfall to date.
