Does anyone know a site that we can find out past snowfall records? We live somewhere where there is hardly ever any snow and we would like to know how much is the most it has ever snowed here.

Lisa, when I am looking for similar data, I usually google "record snowfall location" or something like that first and see what i come up with. I'm not thinking of a particular site that I've used consistently as there are different places that have different aspects or that query.

I will say that generally one of the best sites for any weather related info is the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) site.

They do have this section for looking at national snowfall record data by state/station. I'm finding it not as user friendly to find the info I would be looking for - but I think it's there if you keep playing with months/seasons as it doesn't just give you the overall record. You have to play with your queries.

I love playing with the NOAA site - there is SO much there.    It it huge in scope.
