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!

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.

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,
