Temperatures went from highs near 50 at start of week, and then fell to 30 degrees F, low enough to support a snow storm that left a total of 10.9 inches. I have not seen the outer tube and tube measuring SWE this full in a long time. Closing the month with MTD 97% of NOAA 30 year norms, YTD 90% of NOAA norms, and WYTD 82% of NOAA norms. Early week dry conditions allowed the installation of outdoor Christmas decorations and shopping for Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Snow storm resulted in staying home as several area businesses closed early on Small Business Saturday, and shoveling paths to the front door and snow board and gauge. Also, time spent drying off Roxie Dog who has trouble wading through deep snow and thus can’t chase her ball outside,  making for an energetic inside dog.
