Almanac for Tuesday, February 14, 2012

Some of these numbers are preliminary, particularly the rainfall amount.  Also, it’s not a usual category on this list, but the National Weather Service currently has our snowfall for the day as MM, or “missing.”  Waiting to see if that is gonna change to a trace.  One more extraordinary thing.  Our high of 57 was hit at 12:54 in the morning and the low of 37 hit at 1:05 in the afternoon.  Kind of an upside down and very fun weather day!
