The 2026 Farmers' Almanac predicted that Pittsburgh would see its first snow around December 1, and if the rest of their forecast pans out, then we're in for a "chill, snow, repeat" winter. As we break out our shovels and salt, we've been wondering how often our region actually deals with this kind of winter weather and when it’s been bad enough to break records or shut down the city. Host Megan Harris and newsletter editor Francesca Dabecco are digging into the worst snowstorms and cold snaps in Pittsburgh history – and how we even started measuring this data in the first place.
