2010 My Station Summary Information

This is a post listing a summary of what my station seen for weather in 2010. 2010 was a very active year, many new weather experiences were met, starting from the least snowiest March, which lead into a more active then normal severe weather season. Following this we had a historically strong weather system in October which caused a lot of wind. The active season did not end there. in Dec just when you think the year would end quietly we had a major winter storm. So 2010 definitely went out just as crazy as it came in.
