.... (1550Z): just started here Hugh; small flakes of melting snow
making it to the surface now, though I fancy that for some time PPN
has been evaporating some height above us. OAT = +3

At 19.25z OAT/DP 2.3C/2.1C. The ppn stopped a while ago, but the AWS
shows a total of 2.4mm which I guess consists mostly of melted snow,
which may continue to melt for a while. There was no more than a dusting
of snow grains on the ground.

I have a milk crate ready for when/if we get some serious snowfall. I
use it to hold the standard gauge funnel and its bottle upright on the
AGA while the snow melts into the bottle. I've forgotten where I stole
the milk crate from!
