To go along with our recent postings for snow removal this winter, it would be good to give some insight towards the typical Chicago snowfall numbers. According to the National Weather Service, the last few winters have had snowfall amounts as follows:
2007-2008 60.3″
2008-2009 52.7″
2009-2010 54.2″
2010-2011 57.9″
2011-2012 19.8″
Besides the irregular snowfall of last winter, it is clear to see that Chicago and the surrounding area tends to have snowfall amounts near the 55″ number. Going further into the topic, assuming that Chicago doesn’t have another irregular winter, the Chicago snowfall numbers this winter should look more like the previous years. This winter, Chicago is part of the weak El Nino which generates a chill towards the north. This also allows for moisture which fuels winter storms. That being said, we are looking forward to a great winter with our snow and ice removal services! If you have any needs, give us a call or email today.
