It was actually just one inch, as officially measured at the K-State Agricultural Research Center south of town. The white stuff, which fell with no wind, yielded 0.08 inches of precipitation.

So far in 2019, 1.09 inches of snow has fallen in Hays, with 17.8 inches to date for the season.

Tuesday’s high temperature in Hays was 22 degrees with the overnight low dipping to 13 degrees.

It was considerably warmer a year ago on Feb. 19 when the high reached 63 degrees.
