Love it or hate it, snow is on the way or has already arrived in many parts of the United States. While most places are not likely to see anything close to their state’s record snowfall this year — or anytime soon — historical snowfall records show which places are likely to get the most snowfall compared to other parts of the state.

24/7 Wall St. used data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to calculate for every weather station in the country the total snowfall over the winter of 2016, 2017, and 2018 during the months of November through March. We listed for every state the county with the weather station recording the most snowfall in the state over this period.
