County barely misses November snow record

The Ashtabula County area came within a few flakes of setting a record for November snowfall, according to local National Weather Service observers.
Some 27.5 inches of snow fell at the Ashtabula weather station last month, Ron Coursen NWS observer, said Monday. That’s three inches shy of the 30.5 inches that coated the area in November 2000, the record-holder since Coursen began checking records more than 10 years ago, he said.
“We didn’t break the record but we came close,” Coursen said.
In Dorset, 26.5 inches of snow was recorded in November at the station manned by Greg Becker, he said Monday. That makes it one of the whitest Novembers in decades, he said.
Some 32 inches fell at the Dorset station in 1995, followed by 31 inches in 1996, he said. The third-highest total was 28 inches, recorded way back in 1967, Becker said.
Three-month forecasts indicate a warmer-than-normal winter for the next months, according to the National Weather Service in Cleveland.
