First Day of Snow at the Albany Airport, Past 30 Years

The 30-year average for the first measurable snow is November 15th at Albany Airport. This year is pretty much average on that front. The earliest measurable snow in the past 30 years was October 24 in 2002 and 2005, and the latest measurable snow was December 29, 2015. Obviously, Albany had a big snow storm on October 4, 1987 but that's more then 30 years ago.

Snowstorm!

The snow storm is upon us, it is picking up this evening. I got to the store and got whole-wheat flour to make bread and milk, because I was running low on both of them plus onions and frozen fruit. Stay safe! I'll be heading home a bit from the library, and I'll bake bread and hit the hay!
