“Soaking rain of 1.82 inches past 48 hours was greatly needed to recharge streams and ponds. Slowly falling temperatures from the 50s yesterday” to the mid 30s this morning. First snowflakes mixed in with rain shortly after noon, changing to all snow by mid afternoon with several moderate to briefly heavy snow squalls late afternoon to early evening. Any whitening of the ground mostly melted between snow squalls”
