Best guess for snowfall based on an area fairly sheltered from the wind was 0.80" of new snow... less than 0.5" on most areas of the ground.
12/27/2012 8:00 AM 0.10 1.3 M 2.0 M New snowfall was nearly impossible to measure as the measuring board was blown clean by the wind. Best estimated based on some sheltered areas and previous snow cover was 1.0" - 1.5" of new snow.

11/24/2012 11/25/2012 8:00 AM 2 0.02 T M Was away for a couple of days... it appears there were several periods of snow flurries during the past two day period. At observation time, there was about 1/8" of snow on the measuring board, but less than a tenth on most of the grassy areas - roads very slick and icy.

I am guessing it may have been much of the same out here at this station, but as of observation time, no trace of any snow or ice, with 0.35" of liquid precipitation in the gauge.

12/22/2012 12/26/2012 8:00 AM 5 0.03 0.5 M Was out in Grand Rapids for the long holiday weekend. No snow cover over in that part of the state, but returned home to Grand Ledge this morning to find a small amount of frozen precip in the gauge and a small amount of new snow on the ground. At this posting, I am on the campus of Michigan State University and it appears that there is twice as much snow on the ground out here.

1/12/2013 1/14/2013 8:00 AM 3 0.64 0.5 M Was out of town for the weekend, but appears to have been a mixed-bag of precipitation while I was away. Returned to find about 0.2" of ice/frozen slush on the measuring board covered with about 0.2" of fresh snow.

8/8/2013 8/12/2013 8:00 AM 5 0.48 M M Away from home for several days... first check of gauge since return occurred this morning at 8:00am. Light rain at time of observation, but no idea how much of the current report is associated with the current, ongoing precipitation event.
