At NCAR
09:12	CHEM BAG OUT
09:20 Earlier around 8:30 columns with asspect ratio 1/10 length 1mm were prevelent, now its gone back to the usuall heavily rimed dendrites fallingin aggregates 1-2mm some dendrite crystals at 1-4mm.
Winds are light NE, light snow- The Video has been taken so we have only photographs of the samples, no callibration film starts at 4 following 3 rubbish pictures from my last flight on wendnesday.
0924 snow letting up still agregates 5mm-10mm and crystals 1-3mm heavily rimmed.
0930 breaks in cloud to north-some blue sky 
0933 sample#1
	100micron heavily rimed column #4
	400micron slightly rimmed needle on th end of a melted dendrite branch #5
	600micron rimed needle on end of dendrite branch #6
	800micron plate with 3 drops of rime < 50 micron #7 #8
	500micron column attatched to needle unrimed #9
	4 bullet and/or needles 500micron and melted dendrite #10
0942 collected to chem samples 
0944 sample#2
	Heavily rimmed mush with 2 plates #11
	mush with columns #12
	400micron column with some rime #13
	750micron sheath #14
	thin column or sheath #15
	400micron bullet and a few plates#16
	half a stella with dendritic extensions (2.5mm) #17
	1.5mm graupel with column sticking out #18
0945 dendrites look like meltin mush
0948 snow very light - sky breaking up
0950 very small aggregates falling<0.5mm
	melting on contact, crystal sizes ~1mm
0952 sample#3
	mush of semi-melted crystals #19
	300-400micron plate? #20
	some 3d heavily rimed mush
	600micron needles #21
	many little dendrite fragments #22
	500micron pristine column #23
0959 sample#4
	junk(we are between snow & drizzle phase)#24
	column with 2 drops on it #25
	200micron columnar crystals #26
	graupel & remains of broad branch? #27
	remains of stella with sector like plates #28
	500micron graupel with drops <20 micron on it #29
	column with 2 columns growing perpendicular through it #30
10:00 precip is extreemly light- seem to be between snow and drizzle phase
	sky becoming a little more covered with low sratocumulus clouds.
1005 although we are seeing lots of columnar crystals now, small dendrites are melting in samples.
1007 sample#5
	850micron graupel #31
	300micron graupel #32
	mush 2mm	#33
	300micron grauple#34
	graupel with sheath stuck to it #35
	500micron graupel
	400micron heavily rimed columns #36
	200micron graupel #37
1010 seeing more small graupel now.
1012 very small graupel falling
1015 chem samples #2 taken.
1026 sample6
	string of small particles #1
	broken branch of dendtite with sector plates#2
	pristine hollow column #3
	stack of columns #4
1037 sample#7 extreemly small particles falling
	300micron capped column heavily rimed #5
	string of small cristals #6
	100micron column attatched to 100micron drop#7
	300micron square graupel#8
	<50 micron droplets #9
	more droplets #10
	small particle #11
	mush #12
	150micron square grauple#13
1042 snow stopped
