Comparison of above average snowfall seasons to the occurrence of winter and spring time river flooding in the Susquehanna River basin

"A common perception in Pennsylvania, and, in particular, the Susquehanna River Basin, is that a winter season with above average snowfall usually yields a winter or early spring flood. An examination was made to compare years with above average snowfall to the occurrence of winter/spring flooding in the Susquehanna River Basin. Of particular interest was whether seasonal snowfall totals alone were a strong indicator of winter/spring flooding. Data from the past 70 snow seasons was used to analyze flooding across both the winter and early spring time frames"--Introduction. William Marosi and Ned Pryor.
