Weather highlights this week:

Wednesday and Thursday we saw some wet rain/mixed with snow showers, especially Wednesday night into Thursday morning. It was just a little too warm and a little too light to generate any significant accumulation. Some places might have seen dustings for brief periods. No snow accumulations occurred at the weather station.

Weather for the coming week:

We may see another round of hit or miss showers and thunderstorms mid-week, it looks like the atmosphere may be cool enough as well to see a repeat of last week’s snow/hail mixed in.

Month of March:

March this year was much cooler and wetter than previous years. December is the only other month that exceeded the 10 inch mark. We had 12.06 inches of rain in December, and 10.23 inches of rain in March. Comparatively January had 6.05 inches, and February had 3.79 inches.
