The short story is that 2005 started out unusually wet ... so that at the end of February we had the wettest start to any year on record. |
When you look at the averages you find out that in general, we're a little wetter than normal statewide. But the downside of that is that the last 2 1/2 months have been quite dry, and that we're actually at one of the slowest starts to our snow accumulation season in the past 10 years. |
You can't take one event and substitute it for an entire winter's worth of snow, which we didn't get. |
