The K-State Agricultural Research Center south of town measured an official six-inch snowfall, yielding 0.22 inches of moisture.
The overnight low was 23 degrees after a high of 45 degrees Monday.
The snow began quickly melting this morning as the storm system moved out to the southeast and the sun appeared.
So far in April, Hays has received 1.22 inches of moisture.
The year-to-date total is 6.70 inches, more than two inches above the 4.61 average accumulation by the end of April.
