About this data

Station: NOAA’s Warren station (GHCN USC00369298), elevation 1,210 ft, 41.847° N, 79.149° W. These are NOAA’s 1991–2020 U.S. Climate Normals, 30-year averages that NOAA recomputes every 10 years. NOAA rates this station’s precipitation normals standard, its snow normals provisional and its temperature and freeze normals standard. Standard means at least 24 years of data, with missing months filled from nearby stations. Provisional means at least 10 years of data, with gaps NOAA could not fill from nearby stations.

Your yard can differ from the station. Elevation, valleys and hillsides change how much snow falls and when the first and last freezes come.
