Buffalo has yet to see snow in December, breaks 116-year-old record

BUFFALO, N.Y. –  A 116-year-old snow record has fallen in Buffalo. This time, it's for lack of snow.

The city had yet to see its first measurable snowfall by Friday, breaking the record for latest first snow set on Dec. 3, 1899.

The wait will continue, National Weather Service meteorologist Jim Mitchell said. There's no snow in the forecast until at least mid-December.

During an average season, Buffalo gets its first measurable snow, considered a tenth of an inch or more, on Nov. 8 and sees about 93 inches through the winter.
