2/1/2011 7:00 AM 0.41 M M M M Triple witching stuff: snow, sleet, and freezing rain. The pack was so hard I couldn't get a gauge through it, but it appears to be about an inch thick. That's about a 2:1 ratio, which is extremely dense. More is on the way, but it looks now as if it will be all snow.
2/2/2011 7:00 AM 0.93 0.0 M M M All snow after midnight; what appeared to be fine graupel during the day yesterday. Unlike regular snow, it bounced when it hit, was extremely dense, and had a grain-like consistency to shovel (e.g., like granulated sugar or salt). Later graupel turned sleety and, as temperature dropped overnight, formed a hard white cake strong enough to support a car without breaking through. High winds caused some drifting; ob should be taken with a grain of, er, graupel.
2/5/2011 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M M M No snow in the gauge at 7:00am, although some light ppt was showing on the radar at that time. Visible snow started around 7:30am.
