Storm Speculation: 12/22/12

I left just before noon and the snow rain line was about half way up the lower mt., from there up was all snow, and there was about 8"-10" of heavy snow that skied much deeper
Where it was raining the snooooowww was sloooooooowww.
The sun is peeking out at Shaman HQ as I type.
