Notes
Tmax: 40 (mid-morning - missed daily record set in 1995 by 2F); Tmin: 24 (daily record, also 2nd coldest record for so late in season). After morning sunshine and warmth, fog rolled in around noon (MDT) with a temperature drop to the low-to mid-30sF and subsequent light snow showers off and on that would briefly accumulate and melt again before evening. I went outside twice during this period to scrape 0.2" each time (~3pm and 6:30pm) off my snowboard without emptying rain gage. Snow became steadier and heavier around 8pm, culminating in over an hour of heavy snow that was estimated at 2-3"/h between 9-10pm MDT, with a temperature hovering just below freezing. Snow ended around 11pm when I measured a total of 3.9" on the snowboard. Since the earlier 0.4" were guestimated at 0.08" earlier in the day, the evening snow would have melted down to 0.30", or a 13:1 ratio, pretty fluffy for late May. The calendar-daily total of 7.1" yesterday was a daily record, also the biggest daily total for so late in the season. Snow cover had melted to a trace during the day before the evening snows set in and produced the snowpack observed this morning.
