In the 24 hours ending this morning, total depth decreased from 57.0 inches to 53.0 inches despite 5.2 inches of additional snow. (Yesterday's 57.0 total depth measurement was recorded on video, and will be combined with other storm highlights with the result to be posted to YouTube in the next day or two.)
