First Measurable Snow: When You Can Expect To See ItOctober marks the seasonal shift toward the first accumulating snow of the season in parts of the nation's northern tier and Mountain West, while many other areas typically wait until November or December. This year’s super El Niño could change that timeline in some parts of the country. How do meteorologists define the first accumulating snow? Snow totaling 0.1 inches or more is what qualifies as accumulating snow, also known as measurable snow. It can't just be flurries flying through the air, or snow that falls and immediately melts on contact with the ground. Average first snowfall The map below uses data from the National Weather Service to show the month when the average first accumulating snow falls, based on 30 years of data from 1991 to 2020. These are just averages. Any given season can produce its first snowfall either very early or very late, depending on the weather pattern.
