CME Snowfall futures are geared to a CME Snowfall Index and will be offered initially on two U.S. cities - Boston and New York. These contracts trade on a monthly basis from October through April. CME Snowfall futures trade electronically only, on the CME Globex trading platform, while options trade on the CME trading floors, as do the other CME Weather products. The CME Snowfall Index defines daily snowfall as the total snowfall recorded at a particular location between 12:01 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. midnight, as reported by Earth Satellite Corporation (EarthSat). Trace amounts of daily snowfall will be considered to be zero. Monthly snowfall is defined as the sum of daily snowfall values for a particular location for a calendar month. The accumulation period for each contract begins with the first calendar day of the contract month and ends with the last calendar day of the contract month.
