this is definitely a time where drifting and blowing played a critical role in the snow amounts - and this is one time I don't trust my board reading. the yard is nearly universally covered with anywhere from 2 - 2.5 inches, not counting drifts.

some of the total precip that fell overnight was in the form of rain. it began at roughly 7 pm local time, by 8 pm had rain mixed with snow, and around midnight turned to snow. because the grass had frozen prior to the accumulation of snow, the total snow depth was not measurable since there were numerous voids under the frozen grass. |
