[REMARKS]
...MARCH 2013 WAS THE 8TH DRIEST MARCH ON RECORD...

TIED RECORD HIGH TEMPERATURE OF 74 DEGREES ON THE 15TH, LAST SET IN 1999.

PRECIPITATION VALUE FOR THE 9TH DETERMINED USING ASOS 5 MINUTE OBSERVATION DATA
 AND NEARBY CoCoRaHS OBSERVATIONS. SUSPECTED UNDER-CATCH DUE TO SUSTAINED WINDS OF
 18-28 MPH WITH GUSTS OF 29 TO 38 MPH DURING HEAVIER SNOWFALL (VISIBILITIES OF
 1/2 TO 1 1/2 MILES IN LIGHT TO MODERATE SNOW AND FOG).

WIND DATA FOR 24TH DETERMINED FROM ASOS 5 MINUTE OBSERVATION DATA...ORIGINAL
 SUMMARY ENTRIES INCORRECT.
