Notes: drizzle and light rain turned to sno by midday but only minor accumulation until
about 2 PM 0.37"water from 1.5" snow at 5PM. Has been snowing 1" per hour
or more since then. Winds increasing out of the N after 6 PM. Snow sticking to trees and
they are now bending under the weight. Snow crystal structure has changed several times
and currently heavily rimed little balls hopefully won't stick as much to trees.
Amazing needle structure earlier in the storm stuck to everything.
