Posted: Fri Jan 24, 2003 2:48 pm
NWS office and local radio staions reporting some flakes of snow falling out of the marine enhanced clouds coming off the Atlantic near Cape Canaveral and north Merritt Island.
KMLB 88D is showing some echoes as high as 12-16dBZ streaming SSW toward the space and treasure coasts.
Temps at cloud level are about -6C. This would qualify as a true "Ocean-effect" event. I hope someone up there has pictures!
