2/1/2014 8:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 4.0 M The wind blew very hard from 1:00 p.m. well into the night, so snow is re-arranged. The temperature never rose above freezing, however, so my estimate of snow remaining on the ground is based on yesterday's measurement before the wind began to blow.

2/24/2014 8:00 AM 0.27 4.3 M 5.0 M The measurements on the snow measuring board are probably inaccurate because the wind was blowing.

2/28/2014 8:00 AM 0.10 2.5 M 6.5 M Depth measurement difficult because of drifting - some areas swept clean of snow; others over a foot in drifts. Still snowing at 8:00 a.m. - snowed all day.
3/1/2014 8:00 AM 0.12 2.5 M 8.0 M It snowed continuously from 8:00 a.m. on 2-28 to 8:00 a.m. on 3-1 There is a lot of drifting, so determining snow depths is a guess.
3/2/2014 8:00 AM 0.01 0.5 M 8.5 M It was snowing at 8:00 a.m. on March 1. It snowed lightly off an on until about 2:00 p.m. Wind was still drifting the snow.

A few flakes were still falling at 8:00 a.m. Wind made determining snow depth difficult. After taking a walk to an area protected from wind, I revised snowfall depth to 2.0"
