SUNY-Oswego Mobile Surface Snow Observations Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/382.014

Summary
This dataset contains SUNY Oswego Mobile Surface Snow Observations Data
collected from 7 December 2013 to January 2014. SUNY Oswego positioned 1-4
snow teams in most long lake-axis-parallel (LLAP) lake-effect events observed
during the Ontario Winter Lake-effect Systems (OWLeS) project. Teams were
positioned along the most intense axis of the forecasted band position and
recorded snow fall depth and liquid water content (LWC) at hourly and 6-hourly
periods. They also measured current conditions with a Kestrel mobile weather
station and any other notable observations (e.g., hydrometeor type). These
data are in Excel format (xlsx).
