finished with 1.2" here. Solid month overall

 

Sarc much??

 

I'd posted maybe 6 days ago that I didn't see any shot at dbl digits here in Marshall but krazy season it's been, I not only scored dd's I blew past that all the way to a very respectable 14.5" total. That IS a solid month (any winter month) for this locale.

Surprised how I managed ta get 2 snowstorms in January after a mild pattern that had established.
