We just had a massive tornado outbreak here in the American Midwest and south. Lots of videos out there for you to check out. More bad weather on the way. Say a little prayer. It can’t hurt!
Yeah my city was part of that but luckily no major twisters.
Don't feel bad, most of us in the USA also only think of Manhattan when we think of New York. Also, I live in Colorado and it's been snowing since late oct and it's now April so that's accurate for us. Although, 3 years ago, we had a few 2 meter days.
It's not just how far North they are, it's also elevation.
Statewide averages for snow is a terrible way to measure. I live in Wisconsin and 45” seems quite low. I live in Wausau, which is about the middle of the state and we average over 60”/yr. Many seasons we have approached 100”. Milwaukee gets less than that, but the north gets significantly more, especially by Lake Superior.
Colorado is well know for skiing. It is a big money maker.
The Great Lakes cause a lot of the snow problem the cold northern air picks up moisture from the lakes and dump it right across from it
The relationship between New York City and upstate New York (aka, the rest of the state) is somewhat parallel to London and the rest of the UK. Those further north thinks all of the resources go to the city, which thinks it is the center of the world and does really need a lot of resources. People often think of London when people say England or the UK, etc.
Minnesota has broken tons of records this year. We beat our all-time January record within the first week. The snow bank on front of my house is taller than my roommate's SUV.
Mother Nature had us fooled with Spring, we received 8.5 inches (22 cm) in Minneapolis, MN on April 1st. 😢
@@tamarakaddatz9955Yep! And with that, we've now reached the 3rd snowiest winter on record in the Twin Cities.
@@tamarakaddatz9955 Yeah that storm was nuts. There were cars stuck everywhere. The real prank was that I shouldn't have even bothered to shovel my driveway, since it all would've melted today anyway.
Minnesota is known more for low temps than mass quantities of snow, right?
@@sallyintucson why not have both
Nick Johnson is ok. He makes quite a bit of corny, unfunny jokes, but he’s full of useful information. He also tried to sing too much and I find that annoying.
72.5 FEET so far this year in Mammoth California, and likely more to come.
Great news for Lake Mead and Lake Powell
A lot of people confuse snow with cold, in part because in temperate climates, it only comes during the cold months. It results from air that contains water vapor being cooled sufficiently for it to condense and freeze, which can result from a number of things. The video described warm, moist air from the ocean mixing with cold air from the interior of Alaska. It also mentioned lake-effect snow associated with the Great Lakes, whose mechanism is similar. Air can also be cooled by being pushed upward, due to running into mountains or uplift associated with processes of atmospheric fronts. Antarctica is the coldest continent and also the driest (in term of total precipitation, rain + snow). They don't get much snow there, but once it falls, it can stay on the ground for centuries.
Kabir, believe it or not, there are states which get 6 or more months of snow over here.
For anyone watching this video in their own studio in London, "No se!" is Spanish for, "I don't know!"
Re. rural NY, the hockey game between the Russian professional Olympic team and their American college student opponents happened in Lake Placid in a northern range of the Appalachians by the name of the Adirondacks back in 1980, which inspired the movie "Miracle on Ice". This little town is only around 50 mi./80 km. south of Canada, but around 280mi./450km. north of NYC.
Although he didn't point it out, Valdez is the southern terminus of the Oil Pipeline, which starts on the Arctic Coast 800 mi./almost 1300km. to the north.
Oops! You need to head west of Maine, not east, to get to Vermont.
In answer to your final comment, CO and WY were on the list because of their quite common mountain elevations, which is why you can be in one of them in the summer, yet look toward the mountains, and see many snow capped.
You learn to either love it - winter sports, dress for it, learn to drive in it, help out your neighbors, etc. - or it's torture. Personally, I'm in the former camp. I wouldn't trade a snowy winter for the depressingly brown or relentlessly even temps some of the states further south get. There's nothing like the entire transformation of landscape, crisp, starry nights, northern lights, then the return of the sun and the vibrancy of spring and summer. Hmmm, mmmh!
In my area (Reno) cold storms are dry whereas warm storms we can get CRAZY wet heavy snow. On very rare occasions the snow can be so wet it's almost blue, no sh!t.
I live in Michigan and we had a very cold White Christmas this past season. My furnace died and it was 35 degrees in my house. Sometime after New Year's I finally got it replaced. Will never forget it!
2:05 That's the beginning of the theme song for The Smurfs cartoon. He cuts it off just before it goes into the part that would make it more recognizable. No clue how The Smurfs tie in with the snowiest states, but there it is.
Fun fact part of Alaska is considered a rainforest.
I sort of transposed Maine and Vermont, but I knew those were going to be at the top. I lived in Wisconsin for a while as a kid and we would get these drifts in our yard (along a hill) that were several feet high and would freeze over and we could walk on top without falling through. We ended up digging tunnels through them. Nice memories!
I did the tunnels in SE Michigan. We lived next to a quarry and in front of a huge field near the Detroit River. The plow would push the snow from the the street, right up against the quarry fence and I would make tunnels in that. It was fun... and you're right, good memories.
Snow forts were awesome!
This year Mammoth Lakes, CA got 600 inches breaking all previous records. Mammoth is in the Sierra Nevada Mountains which includes Lake Tahoe. Parts of Utah also got record breaking amounts of snow. Picture two story houses completely buried. Houses have collapsed, people were stranded in some areas the whole winter has been nuts.
Don't feel bad. People in the US, including me, kind of forget about New York as a whole state. New York City, is about 300 sq. miles while the entire state is over 54,500 sq. miles. Yes, I had to look that up. There are a ton of forested areas, state parks, towns and small cities. It's really a beautiful part of the country. My cousin lived up state for a while. I'm from Michigan If you're curious.
P.S.
If you're interested you should look up, "lake-effect snow." Living on the Lake Mi. shore line tho it's more of an annoyance than a wonder.
Northern California just broke a record with 800+ inches. 72.5 feet of snow!
Oklahoma? Someone needs to tell Kabir that Oklahoma borders Texas and New Mexico.
Yes, the snowiest states tend to be in the Northern part of the country. You do know that as you get closer to the poles, it gets colder, right? That's why Scotland is generally colder than Cornwall.
The clip @13.45 is clearly not from Maine. Looks like Germany to me.
No it's fine in november-december, but it really sucks when is coming into March and April.
Buffalo NY got 7 feet of snow this year. Terrible storm that hit Lake Erie and Lake Ontario and dumped all over Buffalo and nearby cities. Yeah some surprising stats. This year the mountains in Calif. are getting dumped on.
The 7 feet in Buffalo was in a narrow band off the end of Lake Erie.. North and south of that band there was nothing. Also, the biggest business in New York State is agriculture.
The Sierra Nevada in California translates as Snowy Mountains, or Snowy Range. In an El Nino year, meters of snow is common.
I'm surprised that Utah is not on this list. I live in Salt Lake City and the average snowfall is about 50 inches a year. The nearby ski areas average 500 inches. This year a few got over 800. The statewide average snowpack is also at a record high this year. Maybe it is the lower lying areas in the south such as St George or Kanab that are keeping the average down.
You mentioned at the beginning that Oklahoma gets a lot of snow. It gets an average of 9-10 inches annually. Not much at all
Currently over 800 inches of snow in some of the mountains in the Western US.
From Syracuse area. If we get less than 100” we act like we haven’t had a winter 😂
I moved from Alabama to Colorado and one year we had snow in May and also early October. Nice thing about CO is it snows one day and by the next it’s melted.
It has been an exceptionally snowy winter in the Western US,
especially California, Utah and Arizona.
One ski area in California is currently expecting to be open for skiing until July 4th.
I lived in pueblo colorado on the eastern plains and we hardly ever got snow. It was a great year when we would get 10 inches. The mountains were the only place to get all the snow. Denver got a good amount to but its not the whole state. Only mountains and high valleys.
im in chicago and we always have a major storm every few years. we always get snow but its not always too bad.....in the city. outside the city can get bad and right next to the lake. the northern states, esp the cities, will have the best in snow clearing and handling it. ive had it snow like 4feet in a day then a week later and other 3 feet. to those that want to see it...careful what you wish. couple inches isnt that bad, and if you dont have to drive, walk, shovel etc in it, then its fine.
I liked The Smurfs intro music to this video. Very nice.
As a 80's kid who loves cartoons, I had to know that.
I live in the SE part of Wi in a suburb in the metro area of Milwaukee.
I've heard because of the cold here we don't get as much snow as other states.
This year we didn't have much snow at all. We had a few snow storms but then
the snow would melt in a few days. I've lived in WI since I was one and a half in 81
and this year was the least amount of snow here in my life.
That was definitely real snow. The fake snow is the stuff that's used in tv shows and
movies. I think they use soap suds. Anyone who has lived where it snows can tell that
it's fake.
My guess is Minnesota? ... or North Dakota? Whoa. Not even mentioned. I think I may have confused the snowiest with the coldest. Not the same thing.
Growing up in Montana, most of my birthdays had snow. I'm an early May baby! My brothers & I used to dig tunnels in the snow drifts and play in them all day long, or until our mom screamed at us to come in the house, whichever came first...
Many, many moons ago, I visited Wyoming on a family vacation. It was in July, which is mid summer, of course. My mother took a picture of my sister and I. I was standing on the ground and my sister was standing beside me on snow that was above my head. I'm 5'5" tall. It was packed so tight that it still hadn't melted from winter. 😮
I'm kind of lucky living in southeast Michigan. The west side of the state gets a ton of lake effect snow. It dumps most of the snow west of me, so by the time the storm reaches my area, it's not that bad. As the storm continues on, it picks up more moisture from Lake Huron and Lake Erie, then dumps lake effect snow on New York.
Yooper scooper - people who live in Michigan's upper peninsula are called Yoopers.
If you ever take an American tour, Michigan's upper peninsula is a must-see. Mackinac Island, the Soo Locks, Pictured Rock, you can take a sunken ship tour on Lake Superior. The tour boats have glass bottoms, and because the water is so cold, it's very clear, so you can see ships 100 feet under water. The Munising waterfalls are awesome!! And if you're lucky, you will see the northern lights.
How did they not mention Minnesota. We have had a lot of snow this winter alone.
We get a lot of snow in Ohio 🙄 Trust me!
The distinction between Vermont and Alaska is frequency and length of snowfall per season, wind variance , mountains, and coastline. So, it would be possible for snow to fall more frequently in a state like Vermont,but Alaska would still be colder by comparison.
Also, the narrator should forego ethnic accents. Inuit/Yupic/Aleutian people (he refers to them as Eskimos) comprise several groups of Indigenous peoples in the region and along the Arctic Circle. They don't sound like the way he portrays them. His jokes are not funny.🙄🤨
Thank you.
A lot of the western states are currently under large amounts of snow right now. I am in California and up north in parts like Mammoth Mountain they have received more than 58 feet and even more at the summits. It's been a crazy cold, rainy, snowy winter this year and to add to the entertainment we had a small earthquake down in southern California yesterday. No damage as it was very small but it sounded like someone punched the house and was another reminder of other potential events.
The reason California won’t ever make this list is because it accounts for the average across the entire state
The most snow I’ve ever seen was on Mt. Rainier. It was April and the roads were only partially open. No snow at the base, massive amounts higher up. I do love skiing in the Rockies. I’m from northern Illinois. Sometimes tons of snow other years not so much here.
Great video but the averages are rough. For example, the ski resorts on the front range of the Wasatch Mountains in Utah are already over 800 inches as of today and its not over yet as they are notorious for spring snow, but Utah doesn't even show up on the list.
Pretty sure that little tune in the beginning was the intro to the theme music for the old "Smurfs" TV cartoon show.
I started humming, la la..la la la laaa.😅
How in the world did he miss Minnesota? Especially around Duluth, and the Lake Superior "lake effect" snow. Oh, and they have another blizzard coming soon, too. It's only April.
Growing up in New York state we often had snow by Halloween. Super annoying when you spent all year planning your costume and now it's hidden under a coat. Spring is hit or miss. The year I graduated from college it snowed on mother's day. This year it keeps bouncing between warm and freezing, warm one day, snowing the next. This weekend it was 70 degrees on Saturday and back down around 25 degrees on Sunday morning.
LOL....I always used to plan my Halloween costume around a snow suit because with out fail it would snow. I remember driving home in a blizzard one year. Took forever to get home. Since I live in the middle of no where we would have to drive at least a half hour to find places to go trick or treating. So usually where I live in NY it start snowing in at least End of October/Beginning of November and doesn't stop snowing until End of March/Beginning of April. In fact we just had snow on the second of April, didn't stick though. And today it has been raining like crazy.
I'm guessing you must be up in the Adirondacks? I couldn't handle being so far from civilization. My mom would drive us to go trick or treating, but it was only like 5 minutes to the closest hamlet. We were like 15 minutes out of town and no more than 20 minutes to the closest mall.
@@laurataylor8717 Oh man, good guess. I am not actually in the Adirondacks but close enough. My school was actually called the Adirondack Central School System. We are actually about 45 minutes from the Adirondacks. Tug Hill Plateau is where I live.
I just watched this yesterday and I wake up to snow falling this morning. I live in Colorado. 😂
I'm from Texas. We rarely get snow. I thought Ohio and Minnesota woulda been top 5.
Hi from Vermont. It’s not just the boatloads of snow, it’s the looong winters, like 6 months a year ugg. Surprisingly amazing food though! ;)
I don't know how foreigners can be surprised about Colorado. South Park is based in Colorado. Lol.
@Kabir everyone thinks of NY City when thinking of NY, lol
No recent records in Wisconsin that I'm aware of, but I was shoveling what seemed like cement just about a month ago.
I prefer snow much more frequently but much less wet; I really enjoy shoveling because I'm odd.
How much Geography do they teach in UK schools, it's surprising that this information is seemingly so novel and unknown.
I guess I’m kinda old then. Blizzard of ‘66, up in/around the Rochester, NY area.
CT gets more snow than most of NY. NY's average is high because of lake effect snow upstate..
No offense Kabir but Oklahoma??? Really?
I used to reside in Northern New York State near the Vermont border and the entire area gets a ton of snow almost everyday during the Winter. It get so much snow that the towns plow the sidewalks with Jeep Wranglers. You will be trying to walk down the snowy sidewalk and then you will hear a horn from the Jeep driving plowing right behind you. Once you hear the horn, you must jump into the snowbank and allow the Jeep to pass. And I cannot forget to point out that the temperature will be well below zero almost everyday as well. Minus 7F was normal at 8AM and -16F at 8PM. You could also go to sleep at midnight with no snow on the ground and wake up at 7AM with more than 12 inches of snow on the ground.
Yeah oklahoma didn't make the list. We got only 2in this last winter. I was grateful, my bones were grateful
That cartoon was Clutch Cargo, and a snippet of it was used in Pulp Fiction (find the scene with Christopher Walken).
At 9:38 the cartoon name is Clutch Cargo. 😂 It's creepy the way their mouths move.
Most people think that New York City is only Manhattan. They always forget the other 4 Borough.
Yes 2022 going into 2023 has been a crazy time for weather. In Miami we got so much rain in fact it's raining here now. We've had a rainy Christmas and Easter. Something we never have. Those months are dry season .
It was the Smurf's theme song that was in the introduction. That's where you heard it before.😂
People who are not from New York State think of the city not the rest of the state. I'm from Buffalo, New York.
Ranking states by the average statewide snowfall is very misleading. California has some of the snowiest places in the US, but they also have large areas where it never snows. The ski resorts around Lake Tahoe on the California Nevada border have gotten between 50 and 60 feet of snow so far this year, and the season isn't over yet.
that song is from Hanna Barbera cartoons but specifically the smurfs,
Gaylord,Michigan was number in the Nation got snow fall a few years ago. Whomever did the video needs to research a little better
Where I went to High school (northern Michigan) we had this huge auditorium with an enormous steeply pitched roof. We got so much snow we could climb right up to the top of the roof (using the packed drift at the bottom to get up to the roof) and sled all the way down to ground level.
Oklahoma and the Dakotas are two very different places 😂
My home state of Utah is supposed to get 4 feet, which is close to 121cm between tonight and tomorrow at our ski resorts. Our mountains less then a mile from me are about to eclipse 800 inches of snow this winter which is 66 feet for reference. Its blows my mind that my state is not in the top 10 for this list.
The music you heard at the start of the video. Was the opening of The Smurfs cartoon theme song.
I've the expression that Vermont has 2 seasons; Winter and August.
We get plenty of snow here in Iowa!!! And the -20 to -50 degrees below zero:(
That song was from The Smurfs, at least that's the only place I remember hearing it.
Substantial portions of Alaska are on the lee sides of large mountain ranges and so get relatively little precipitation.
We got our first snow in Washington state toward the end of October and it has never left, it is now into April and we had new snowfall yesterday so going on six months. We will have snow where I live till May for sure.
I'm from Oklahoma. We won't be on the list. Now if you make a list of states with the most tornadoes. We will be at the top😂
It's not that those states up there are up near Canada. Lot's of states are near Canada.
It's the Great lakes.
All that moisture is the fuel for snowstorms.
I love my state, Minnesota, but damn, winter is pretty lame here sometimes, it gets damn cold and tons of snow man
I live in northern IL, and while this year has been a bit dry, we know about snow!😆😆😆 cant wait to see what you say about it.
Saying that Colorado gets less snow then New Hampshire is a joke
I do not need to cheat to know what the snowiest US state is, I actually live in the number 1 snowiest US state.
Maine can also get to over 100 in the summer time 😂 we like to do ALL the weather
lol Oklahoma is not snowy ??? it maybe snows once or twice a year. You silly.
Again? The Beesleys youtube like yesterday.
In wisconsin we mainly get that much snowfall in the northern part of wisconsin so more towards canda also we call that part of wisconsin up north it also is mainly wilderness up north in wisconsin that is where u can hunt a lot and other things outdoor activities
I’m in southeast Virginia we didn’t see any snow, California got pounded though 😂
There was enough snow on Mauna Kea Hawaii to ski for several weeks this year.
They make tire socks now.
Much easier than chains
Check out California at Tahoe snow this year
This guy is why we need critical race theory training
Growing up in Colorado, there was a blizzard in '97 that basically buried our house. We were able to make a snow tunnel out the front door that made it look like the Hoth corridors in Star Wars. We went sledding out the second story window. The snow didn't melt for a good week or so.
Haha 4 months, we get 6 to 7 months of snow in New Hampshire.
This winter Donnor pass area 52 FEET of snow
I love the snow also....I really enjoy seeing snow on TV here in Florida lol.....I was raised up north and don't miss the snow at all😂
We hardly had any snow this year. Freaky.
My money for #1 would be Colorado or Utah
You are forgetting nys sits next door to Canada
