Just measured 15.5 cm. That includes the 2-3 cm that fell most of the day yesterday when the temp was around 2C with a lot of it melting. Still snowing but seems to be easing a bit now.

About 2 hours of snow left to go.

Should see sunshine later and moonshine tonight with a hard freeze.

Late season ~0c troffy snow is some of the best we get. Esp when it falls at night due to colder temps and no sun

I left a ruler out in the snow. I'll try to get my folks to send me a photo of it when the snow clears up so I can have an accurate tally.

Otherwise I'll rely on estimates again from Rubus and walthz's reports on amounts after 7:30 AM lol
