Snowfall data is not complete. Please be careful using the data.
Snowfall depth data only goes back to 1991 for Quality Controled source.
The preliminary data is for the date the observation was reported and not necessarily for the local date. The reports are around 7 AM, so the high temperature (for example) was most likely for the previous date.
