Moderate to heavy snow fell between 8AM and noon yesterday giving us 0.6 inches of snow. Freezing drizzle fell yesterday evening and last night. Light snow overnight gave us another 0.3 inches up to the obs time. About 3.5 inches of snow on the ground with a thin layer of ice on top of the snow from the freezing drizzle.

Nearly 7 inches of new snow to report from this clipper system that rolled through the region yesterday. Heavy snow fell all day ending shortly after 9PM. Using the melted value from the snowboard rather then from the gauge, because the gauge catch was 0.26 inches less then what was measured from the snowboard. Lots of blowing snow yesterday helped minimize the catch in the gauge. Precip from the gauge was 0.37 inches compared to 0.63 inches from the snowboard.
12/15/2017 7:00 AM 0.03 1.2 0.03 10.0 M Temps hovering just below 20 degrees with light snow falling at the obs time.

Most of the snow fell yesterday morning after the obs time, with only flurries and very light snow falling during the afternoon. Some blowing snow yesterday might have exaggerated the new snow depth and precip core measured from the snowboard. Precip from gauge was 0.12 inches compared to 0.14 inches on the snowboard.
12/17/2017 7:00 AM 0.03 0.1 0.01 10.5 M Overcast this morning with temps near 20 degrees. Patchy freezing drizzle along with some scattered light snow showers moved through yesterday morning ending by the afternoon.

12/25/2017 7:00 AM 0.13 1.6 0.13 6.5 M Merry Christmas! Heavy snow falling this morning with winds gusting at times out of the west and 17 degrees. System snow moved in early in the afternoon yesterday transitioning to a lake effect setup later in the night.
12/26/2017 7:00 AM 0.01 0.5 0.01 6.5 M Clear skies this morning and -3F. Some snow showers fell throughout the day yesterday coupled with gusty winds up to 30 MPH. Blowing snow yesterday makes it very difficult to estimate the total snowfall that fell. The snowboard had 3.8 inches of snow on it (0.46 inches of precip from a core sample). However, our snow depth still remains around 6.5 inches in open areas, despite the blowing and drifting. Therefore, I'm estimating the snowfall that fell yesterday. Using the liquid amount in the gauge for new snowfall water equiv.
12/27/2017 7:00 AM T T T 6.5 M Haven't seen this kind of cold temps in quite some time. -16 degrees under mostly clear skies (some Cu/St fractus rolling through). Areas of blowing drifting snow yesterday with winds gusting up to 25 MPH at times. Several snow showers came through late in the afternoon around 3PM. Put up some mesh fencing around the snowboard to try and prevent drifting. We'll see how effective it is through the winter.
12/28/2017 7:00 AM T T T 6.5 M -15 degrees under mostly clear skies (some mid-high cloud moving in). A light snow shower moved through yesterday afternoon. Otherwise, peeks of sunshine during the day with temps quickly climbing to 10 degrees for the high temp.
12/29/2017 7:00 AM 0.01 0.2 0.01 6.5 M 6 degrees with light snow falling at the obs time. Mostly cloudy yesterday with some hazy sunshine peaking through mid/high cloud early in the day. Snow started moving in late last night.
12/30/2017 7:00 AM 0.05 0.6 0.05 7.0 M Light snow falling at the obs time with winds picking up out of the NW. Temps just shy of 11 degrees. Flurries during the day yesterday with heavier snow picking up after 7 PM continuing into the overnight hours.
12/31/2017 7:00 AM T 0.2 T 7.0 M -2 degrees and overcast this morning. A dusting of snow on the snowboard and in the gauge from light snow falling last night.

1/1/2018 7:00 AM 0.01 0.1 0.01 7.0 1.03 Just a dusting of snow to report this New Year's Day. Overcast with light snow falling, 5 degrees with winds picking up out of the west between 5 and 10 MPH (wind chills below zero). Light snow moved in last night with a quick band of lake effect moving in around 7 PM. Otherwise, fairly dry yesterday with partly sunny skies during the afternoon.
1/2/2018 7:00 AM T 0.1 T 7.0 M Partly cloudy this morning and 12 degrees with winds gusting between 5 and 10 MPH dropping the wind chills down into the single digits. Some snow covering the snowboard due to blowing. Light lake effect snow showers moved through yesterday morning only giving us a dusting of new snow. Snow ended around 12PM with only a few flurries falling during the afternoon.
1/3/2018 7:00 AM 0.03 1.0 0.03 7.5 M 8 degrees this morning with light snow falling. An inch of fluffy new snow to report this morning from snow showers moving into the area after 8 PM yesterday and continuing throughout the night (system driven). Sunshine late in the day yesterday with winds gusting above 30 MPH at times during the afternoon.
1/4/2018 7:00 AM 0.03 1.0 0.03 8.0 M A few flurries falling at the obs time this morning, 5 degrees and mostly cloudy this morning. Strangely enough the precip and snow amount is the same measurement today as it was for yesterday's obs. However, temp profiles during both snowfall events were very similar, hovering in the low-mid teens, so the snow to liquid ratios must have been about the same as well. Periods of mod-heavy snow fell during the morning yesterday with lighter snow falling during the afternoon. Heavy lake effect bands rolled through later in the evening ending around 9 PM.
1/5/2018 7:00 AM T T T 8.0 M Partly cloudy this morning with a bright moon shining and -9 degrees. A few flakes in the gauge from some flurries falling last night. Gusty winds yesterday above 20 MPH, caused some snow to blow around a bit (snowboard was covered with snow at obs). A few peaks of sunshine at times during the afternoon.

Snow started falling after 11 PM last night after a mainly cloudy day yesterday with some attempted peaks of sunshine during the afternoon. New snowfall is just over a half an inch. Using the core from the snowboard for the precip totals, due to gauge catch being less then what snow fell on the snowboard. Gusty winds throughout the night helped minimize the gauge catch. Some ice mixed in with the snow early in the night transitioning to just a wet snow earlier this morning.

Exactly a half an inch of new snow to report, which started falling late in the night. Rainfall from this system amounted to 0.48 inches, with an addition 0.05 inches from snow/sleet/FZRA. 0.04 inches of precip taken from a core sample on the snowboard. I figure the additional hundreth of an inch recorded from the gauge, came from mixed precip, as the outer part of the gauge had a thin layer of ice on it.

4/7/2018 7:00 AM 0.10 1.0 0.10 4.5 M New snowfall estimated due to blowing/drifting snow yesterday as winds picked up during the afternoon. An inch of snow fell between 7 and 9:45 AM yesterday morning. Numerous lake effect snow showers throughout the afternoon as temps warmed into the 30s. Snowboard had 3.4 inches of snow on it by 6:15 PM, but most of the accumulation was from snow that had blown in. Using total snow depth readings to come up with new snowfall amount. I took an average of the total snow depth from three locations and subtracted that amount from total snow depth readings at these spots yesterday morning. This gives me an inch of new snowfall. Melted value from core is from the gauge not the snowboard.

4/17/2018 7:00 AM 0.02 0.3 0.02 3.5 M Using precip totals from the gauge this morning as it appears there was some blowing snow conditions last night helping to exaggerate new snowfall and the melted value obtained from the snowboard.
