Default (OBS)Romansleigh, N Devon 24 Dec 10

24/0850 Dec 10: N F2 25KM 1CU015 -3.0/xxx Q1020 Tg -9.5

Rmks: Min -3.3, grass min (over snow) -10.3, snow depth 19 cm (now
crusted on top). The depth of lying snow has reduced by 11 cm during
the last 5 days, primarily due to heat flux from the ground. On this
occasion, the ground was not substantially frozen before the first
snow a week ago, which has aided the process, with 30 cm soil
temperature still at 3.5 C (decrease of 0.5 C in last week).
