Snowy 40 days

Posted: 19 Feb 2019 05:33 AM

The featured chart displays the total snowfall over the past 40 days for the 10 Jan thru 18 Feb period each year for Des Moines. This year's total blows away any previous year for the same period of days. Over any period of consecutive 40 days, this year's total is the largest since 1912 with the maximum accumulation being 43.50 inches that year. It is remarkable to think that at least one or maybe two more significant snow storms will impact Des Moines over the coming seven days.
