das Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Windier than I thought it would be. Snow keeps changing directions. 29.1F in Clarksburg with steady snow. It's windy here too with a stiff NNW breeze of 16mph and a couple of gusts to 20. Just passed 1/2" of new snow. IP started mixing in at 5:30am and snow started around 7am. Edited to add: snow OTG at the start was 5". 0.63" of rain fell before the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
