Record Low Snowfall, Even in the Great Lakes

It was one thing to have a brown Christmas, but as we go deeper into January, the lack of snow in parts of the Northeast and Great Lakes becomes more odd.
Snow depth analysis as of 1 a.m. EST, January 8, 2016. Note the lack of snow on the ground in the Northeast, as far north as southern New England.(National Water Center)
Neither Philadelphia, nor Washington, D.C., had seen even a trace of snow yet in the season through January 7, the latest on record either city has gone without seeing at least a few flurries in any season.
Through January 7, Buffalo (4.1 inches) and Cleveland (1.4 inches) had seen their least snowy start to a season on record.
