Key Points:
- Parts of the U.S. East Coast may experience the first measurable snow of the season this week as a storm develops into a nor'easter.
- The timing of the first snowfall varies widely across the country, with elevated areas like the Rocky Mountains seeing snow as early as August, while southern regions may not see snow until December or January, if at all.
- An interactive tool based on NOAA data allows users to explore the earliest recorded first measurable snowfall in their area.
- A strong El Niño event this winter is expected to bring warmer conditions to the northern U.S. and stormier, wetter weather with increased chances of rain and snow to the southern states.
