Record-smashing 8 inches of snow for Crater Lake
« on: September 28, 2013, 11:44:51 AM »
More than one month early.

Crater Lake, Oregon, received “a record-smashing 8 inches (20.3 cm) of snow in 24 hours” Tuesday into Wednesday, the National Weather Service reported.

More than one month ahead of schedule, the frosty blanket made its earliest appearance since 1986, when snow fell a week earlier on Sept. 18. Before that, the earliest appearance of a winter wonderland at Crater Lake was Sept. 24, 1948.

“It looks like winter,” said Marcia McCabe, park spokeswoman. “It’s gorgeous. It’s absolutely beautiful.”
