(* means a trouble report has been issued or appended to)
We received about 5 inches of snow during the day.  Heavy snow in the
afternoon.  I checked the roof after the snow ended and it had almost
no snow on it (it was very windy and cold, so it must have blown right
off).  We would have been able to open, but the air was too humid all
night and the sky was cloudy until about an hour before the start of
astronomical twilight.
The observers were Jean Quashnock and Dan VandenBerk for UC03, and Don
Hoard for UW07.
