The Kentucky Mesonet at WKU has completed installation of a station in Webster County. The site at Baker Park in Dixon is the 70th operational station in 69 counties. The statewide network is the Commonwealth's official source for weather and climate data.

In addition to the standard suite of meteorological instrumentation, the Webster County station includes a field observation camera. "This site is one of a small number of Mesonet stations that have a camera to provide visual imagery of landscape and weather conditions," Dr. Foster said. "The landscape images will aid with drought monitoring and will be available to the National Weather Service to monitor storms and winter weather in Webster County."

We only got a few snow flakes here this morning, and then back to rain, but when the temperature drops enough to get ice, we usually get a nice bunch of icicles that stay a while. These were hanging around on Burkesville Street.
