- In trying to measure the snow on the ground
last evening I found that the area I had
been measuring is now or was not typical
of the rest of the yard. While I had been
measuring less than 1" in that area
and is now bare in spots, the rest of the
yard measured 1-3/4" to 3" or an
average of 2.4". Of the yards across
the street, one is mostly bare and another
two are still snow covered. The differences
are due to varying amounts of sun exposure,
wind exposure, drifting, and so on. I'm still
trying to figure out whether to adjust the
figures already reported or ? See 2050 AST
2/19.
