On Tuesday, there were only small patches of snow which mostly melted off during the day. 
On Wednesday, the ground started as mostly wet, but had dried considerably by the

Today (Thursday) the ground was moistened by new snow falling in the morning (but never 
stuck), and is continuing to dry in the late day.
