Records kept at observation sight for 7 years, though likely the largest snowfall in Winnemucca since I moved here 26 years ago. Snowed continuously for approximately 15 hours, though very lightly between 8:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., re-intensifying in the early afternoon. Particularly incredible given the Weather Service issuing only a winter weather advisory 8 hours before snow commenced, upgrading to a winter storm warning only AFTER 7" had already fallen.
