I really love Yowindow on my PC and Android. This morning however, looking at my phone, I had to laugh:
Nowhere on Earth will it be snowing in 48F.
I'm curious what could have caused this error, as I didn't check to see if it was truly NWS that was reporting the error. For what it's worth, I thought I would submit the screenshot for your reference. Cheers!

Weather source issue, maybe?

Hi Nicki,
Welcome to YoWindow.
4518264; Middletown/Ohio - METAR Station KMWO - reported snow this morning.
See the attached METAR Station history.
The time is UTC.
Subtract 4 hours from the UTC time and the light snow will match your screenshot.

Re: Weather source issue, maybe?
Wow, isn't that something! So then I suppose my initial suspicion was correct, in that the error must have been on the part of the source. On the METARs site I looked up, it appears that the weather observations are made by some sort of automated system. Clearly I don't know that much about meteorology, or I'd have a much higher pay grade. lol Unless it's possible that it *can* snow in temperatures above 32F, as I'd always learned, and even up to 48F? I would find it odd, but truly nothing would surprise me.
Thanks for sharing the data, I never tire of learning new things!

Good Evening,
Having lived up here in Alaska for a VERY long time, I have seen all sorts of weather. That weather report would have been a shocker indeed!
Happy to hear it wasn't actually snowing there in your neck of the woods....
Technology is great when it works!
Cheers,
