Notes

From email, "At 12:45 p.m. I saw Climax run naturally. SS-N-R2-D2-I. The low visibility and distance made it hard to tell how deep the crown was, but based on there not being much volume of debris and it not running very far I’m guessing it was within the new snow/storm interface and didn’t step down to any buried PWL."
