About 11.3 inches a winter at a NOAA weather station 7.5 miles away, averaged over 8 winters. Between December 1 and March 31 that brings 1.6 weekday mornings a year with 2 inches of new snow or more, and 0.3 with 4 inches or more.

4.6 inches on March 1, 2019, the largest single day at a NOAA weather station 7.5 miles away in 8 winters. The snowiest winter was 2020 to 2021, with 21.7 inches.

It reads the National Weather Service forecast for Morgantown through the night and the 5 to 8 am bus run, adds winter alerts and the Winter Storm Severity Index, and measures the snow against Monongalia’s own big snow morning: 2.8 inches, the top tenth of snowy weekday mornings at a NOAA weather station 7.5 miles away.

West Virginia requires at least 900 instructional hours a year, with each county setting the length of its days. The State Superintendent may lower the minimum in a county under a federal disaster declaration or a Governor's emergency declaration tied to the lost hours.
