Now that the recent first freeze of the season has ended the growing season in many places in the Northeast, many are beginning their preparations for winter. Last year’s historic October snowstorm taught us it's possible to pull out the snowplows even before Halloween.

Although a few past winters didn't have measurable snow until after we rang in the New Year, it’s better to be safe than sorry. Check out the chart below to learn what the earliest and latest snowfalls on record are for your area.
