December weather

Dec. 30

The total rain was 57.4 mm. Snow: 18cm. Dec. 31st was sort of drizzly rain, and hard to judge. I can't get to the rain gauge until I do some more snow shoveling. I'd put it away as I had anticipated snow.

What a mess! Snow, ice pellets and everything. It's -10 C. Checked the highway conditions map.

JB tells me there was thunder and lightning at 4 a.m., and Annie growled at it, as she does!
