Evapourating snowfall of January 18, 1989 / by P. Staples and F.J. Conway.En57-61/89-4E-PDF

"Snow was forecast for much of Southern Ontario on January 18, 1989, but little if any at all was received at reporting stations. Weather radar detected snow for a good part of the day: as it never arrived at the surface, it can only have evapourated before reaching the ground. The interest in this case is that available radisonde data captures this phenomena very well. Examination of available analyses indicates how the situation developed, and suggests that the phenomenon might have been forecast better, particularly with increased local computational support"--Introduction.
