...in an entire winter we average around 125cm of snow.
About 20% of that comes after the start of spring.
So far we're at 104cm, which is right around average for this part of the year.
But so far March has only gotten 5cm, when it averages 20cm.

...even with the new snow, our snowdepth kept dropping yesterday.
The airport reached "trace amounts", although we'll see if that lasts. Stony Plain is down to 2cm, while Blatchford is still at 22cm.
We're at the point where new snow won't hang around long.
