Description:

We have developed several objective techniques of observing and reporting freezing precipitation. The techniques proposed here are suitable for use in applications ranging from the simplest "yes/no" answer to precision research requiring refined quantitative data. Any of the proposed techniques can be used in current and projected automatic weather stations. We have found commercially available sensors which are usable and "off the shelf." It may be necessary to make relatively minor design changes in these sensors or to provide logic circuits to massage the output. Costs are estimated to vary from about $800 for the simplest system to about $1,600 for the system with the maximum resolution.
