    Is there really less snow now than 10-20 years ago? I was raised in Michigan and there was lots of snow. But I moved to Arizona when I was a teenager so I stopped seeing snow for obvious reasons. Do the northern states have less snow than they used to?

      The belt of “no snow year round” in the US has been scotting up bit by bit every year.

      Around where I live, we havent had snow in town in 2-3 years. This year, we cant see snow on the closest mountain.

      Icy roads used to be a concern starting in late october to november, and wasnt gone until first week of march. This year they dont think ice is gonna be a concern at all.

      Its starting to get there.
