Quick Observation

Winter returned to the Swan above 5200'  

Some impressive stats over the last week. 

Nearly a foot of liquid at Noisy. 

3.9 inches of liquid down here at 3100' with 1.9'' of that falling yesterday.

About 3 feet of new snow at Noisy in the last 36 hrs.

Curious about the noteable lack of snow in the trees at mid and upper elevations. Guessing the slush doesn't stick.   Not so curious about it at lower elevations.
