Winter Storm of February 2014

The days of hype preceding this storm were interesting. Predictions were all over the place about snow amounts and timing, and the wise meteorologists (now there's an oxymoron) held off with any firm predictions until the last minute. The PYI official snow amount was 10 inches of snow that quickly turned to slush when the rain started. 

This was a snow-to-rain event where temperatures got to 37 degrees by the time the storm was done.  The lull in the storm was about 12 hours before the wraparound band of precipitation showed up as a thunderstorm with a bit of lightning. It turned back to 1/2 inch of snow before clearing up.  A sunny day today helped clear things up to where most roads are dry already.
