  9. Lessons learned: 1) Daytime light snow will have a difficult time accumulating even in December and temperatures are near freezing during the precipitation ; 2) if it is above 45 degrees the day before snow, sticking will be a problem if the snow begins during daylight; and 3) wet bulbs temps need to be below freezing when snow begins if a daytime snow is not heavy.
