Snow has been a thing that we have been missing, for the most part, for the last couple of years.  This can be an issue, especially when you live in a state that depends on revenue from all 4 of our seasons.  There are many places around the state that depend on snow and cold temperatures to do what they need to do regarding events that are centered around a Minnesota winter.

This year, so far we have had cold temperatures, but snow is still lacking, for the most part.  Usually, we have much more than this, like 3 years ago when we got 90 inches of snow.  It got so no one really knew where to put it after awhile.

Snow does look to be in the long range forecast, however.  There is one county that traditionally has the most snow in the state.  According to this study, the snowiest county in Minnesota is St Louis County.  This county is in Northern Minnesota and on average gets about 40 inches of snow per year.  Cities in the county include Duluth, Hibbing. Ely, Eveleth, Biwabik, etc.  So, yes, we know that they get a lot of snow.  Usually.

Most people think of Minnesota as a very snowy state.  But, that county came in at number 23.  The snowiest county in the United States is in New Hampshire.  Then there are several counties in Alaska.  That tracks, and also Erie County in New York.  That also makes sense.  An odd one is the county coming in at number 7 is Coconino county in ARIZONA!!!!!  Obviously Norther Arizona.  But that's not somewhere you would normally think of being super snowy.

If you want to check out the study, it is pretty interesting.  You can find that link here at the Winter Wonderland's 2025 snow study.

LOOK: The most extreme temperatures in the history of every state

Stacker consulted 2021 data from the NOAA's State Climate Extremes Committee (SCEC) to illustrate the hottest and coldest temperatures ever recorded in each state. Each slide also reveals the all-time highest 24-hour precipitation record and all-time highest 24-hour snowfall.

LOOK: The most expensive weather and climate disasters in recent decades

Stacker ranked the most expensive climate disasters by the billions since 1980 by the total cost of all damages, adjusted for inflation, based on 2021 data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The list starts with Hurricane Sally, which caused $7.3 billion in damages in 2020, and ends with a devastating 2005 hurricane that caused $170 billion in damage and killed at least 1,833 people.
