Record June Snowfall Reported Atop Mount Washington

  • Mount Washington in New Hampshire received the highest amount of June snowfall in over 90 years according to records kept by the observatory.
  • inches of snow fell over the course of the month thanks to a stationary weather system that delivered snow daily.
  • The snow that fell has since melted due to warmer temperatures, though more snow could come later in the week as another system moves through.
  • The observatory has tracked snowfall atop the mountain since 1932.
  • While June snow is not unheard of, this much snow this late in the season is unusual for the region.
