Syracuse Is #1 In Snowfall Totals Again!
Posted by Mitch Mitchell on Mar 10, 2025
First, a 2nd article in a week; shocking! Second, after 5 or 6 years, the Syracuse, NY area is back at the top in snowfall in the nation:
We’re Number One!
What’s funny is that even with the last few years of what I’ll call “deficient” snowfall, Syracuse was still ranked #3 in the nation according to most polls throughout the country. Of course, this doesn’t mention smaller communities that still crush our amount of snow, but we’ll take what we can get. 🙂
With that brief amount of conversation up top, I’ve decided that I’m going to share some of the snowfall images I’ve taken so far this season, and probably link to some of the videos I’ve posted on Instagram… which astounds people who don’t live in the area and has most local people wishing our snow removal people had remembered how to do it… messiest roads services since our general snowfall had diminished.
Enough of the preamble; let’s share some visual stuff:

Unfortunately, I can’t post anymore of the videos I created because the files are way too large to fit in a WordPress blog. Instead, I’m going to share the YouTube video I recorded while I was waiting for takeout food from Pie Guys in Liverpool, NY. As words go, it’s the shortest post I’ve ever written, but for depth it’s the heaviest post I’ve ever created. I hope you enjoy the video and the images; Mitchell’s out!

All that snow…foreign to me.
I have been in Texas for around a decade but I am a Californian by birth so snow is still kind of novel to me.
I have been in Buffalo and Toronto during Winter so I have seen heavy snow, but still.
That icy fall doesn’t sound like any fun to me.
I’ve lived only 7 years total in relatively warm climates… actually, I don’t remember Fort Worth at all, I only remember it snowing once in Tokyo, and I think it snowed once in Kansas City, MO, but it was mainly hot with lots of tornado warnings. However, using a comparison, the largest snowfall in the Syracuse area was around 193″ of snow. But where I went to college on Lake Ontario, they had an official snowfall total of over 300″ one year; ouch! lol
