Vermont is no stranger to harsh winters, with snowfall being a regular occurrence in the state. Over the years, there have been several winters that have stood out for their particularly heavy snowfall. The Burlington Free Press recently took a look back at some of the snowiest winters in Vermont to provide readers with a glimpse of the records that have been set.
One of the snowiest winters in Vermont history occurred during the winter of 2010-2011, when the state saw a total of 222 inches of snowfall. This winter was notable not only for the sheer volume of snow that fell, but also for the frequency of the snowstorms that hit the region. The winter of 2007-2008 also saw heavy snowfall, with a total of 198 inches recorded in Burlington.
Other winters that were particularly snowy in Vermont include the winter of 1970-1971, which brought 204.4 inches of snow to the state, and the winter of 1993-1994, which saw 185.8 inches of snowfall. These winters serve as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of Vermont’s weather and the importance of being prepared for heavy snowfall during the winter months.
While these snowfall records may seem daunting to those who are not accustomed to Vermont’s winter weather, they also serve as a testament to the resilience of the state’s residents. With the proper preparation and a positive attitude, Vermonters are able to weather even the most severe winter storms. As we look forward to the coming winter season, it is important to keep these records in mind and to be ready for whatever Mother Nature may have in store.
