So far this winter has been virtually non-existent. To date, this is the 8th warmest on record. Here’s how our changing climate is changing winter:

With winter now officially over, and no snow in sight...I'm closing a book on the snow struggling winter that was 2022-2023. Less than half an inch of snow is the third least in DC history for winter. Three of the top five least snowy winters have come in the last 11 years. Ouch.

A few reasons for why snow totals did not perform to expectation with model guidance. Warm temperatures, dry air and a slight shift in the storm track. 7News DC

Here is a loop of the entire event. Mild temps and dry air played a role, sure...but with the dew point depression this easily could have been overcome had precipitation lasted longer. It was the shorter than expected duration of the event (over by 3am!) that hurt our totals.

If you’re wondering why we did not get all the snow that was forecast here’s a look at why. While we did get snow, it was just not as much as we anticipated. In fact, a lot less. Mother Nature had other plans & all the factors shown below explain it all FOX 5 DC
