The level was about 40uV and the level was
continuous for the duration of the storm. Does snow normallly cause
more of a static problem than rain? Living in the SOuth snow isnot
something I have a lot of experience with.

It is usually very dry when it snows but it can do that with rain too. The
charge builds up as it falls and snaps when striking the antenna elements.
Smog and dust can do the same thing and we hear that when it is very dry and
the wind blows even on weak and long path FM signals.
