Delaware has a new daily snow depth record ... 11 years later Delaware News Journal It has been an active 2021 as far as snowstorms go. This month, the National Center for Environmental Information determined that Delaware broke a record for daily snow depth measurement that was established 42 years ago. Only the new record wasn't set by any of our recent modest storms. It happened 11 years ago during the “Snowmageddon” storm that pelted the region in early February 2010. The center, an office of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, released a report dated Feb. 12 stating that the new snow depth record for the state is now officially 28 inches, as measured at the Greenwood 2.9 SE station, which is a Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network volunteer site. That broke the previous record set in February 1979 in Bridgeville and matched in February 2003 in New Castle, Wilmington and Dover.
