Compact Storm TimeLapse

I did a time lapse today of the compact little storm system that moved across our area. I started the time lapse at around 830am with the skies still mostly clear and it ends around sunset. You can just barely make out (in this youtube version) some interesting features such as the snow initially showing as virga (snow that was evaporating before reaching the ground). You can also see some small waves (similar to throwing a rock into a lake) as the clouds pass over. The mountain that disappears towards the end while its snowing is only about 3/4 of a mile away so that should give a good idea of just how heavy the snow was.
