We've known this for 20 years. Not that it's not still true, but aren't you guys tired of talking about this and sharing the same articles saying the same thing for over 20 years?

This study looks at snow accumulation and snow water equivalent (SWE) at 21 sites around new england. I have a more readable copy of this paper saved in a pdf if anyone is actually interested.

I'd be interested to see a similar study from 2000 to present. I understand it's a smaller sample size than the study you shared but I think we can agree that there has been a significant swing in the weather patterns in the last decade. I'd love to see what that has done to the snow accumulation at those 21 sites.

I agree, this study is definitely dated. Snow/Total Precipitation rapidly started decreasing after ~1975. It would be interesting to see how that rate has changed since 2000.
