11/22/2015 8:00 AM 0.04 1.2 0.09 1.0 0.03 The melted core value from the snowboard is over twice that of the values from the ground and the gauge. can't explain that except to postulate that the ground is still very warm (there was a slight ice layer at ground surface, and thus initial snowfall still melts some, and the snow is very light and dry, so that more may fly past the gauge due to wind eddies. Ice is making on large areas of the lake for the first time. The low last night was 7 (Davis). We have a perfect SW aspect on the lake's long access. The angle of the sun at this time is so low that the sunlight glinting off the water is absolutely blinding--you cannot look at it.
12/11/2015 8:00 AM 0.17 0.3 0.01 T 0.01 On my cocorahs site, I have approximately 50% coverage on the ground, and this snow measures 0.2 inches in depth. this equates to an acre inch measurement of 0.1 in--a trace. A trace (T) was selected as the most supportable measurement. Across the road in the woods, there is scanty 100% snow cover. My site represents snow cover on SW slopes and lakeshores in this area. The gauge held 0.17 inches of water, with some snow slush. the snow water equivilent in the gauge would be 0.01 inches of water.

2/15/2016 8:00 AM T T M 15.0 3.06 The snow on my site has drifted and compacted during the windy periods we have had in the last week. In some places, the snow is 12 inches deep, in some places it is 17 inches deep. 15 inches in depth is the most commonly occurring measurement. It snowed a little bit last week, with very little additional accumulation in water content. The snow is like chaff--I watched it be blown higher than tall trees on the shore of the lake by a SW wind, and I experienced white out conditions many times when I tried to see across the lake--the trees on the shore 50 feet from the house were all I could see, and they were hazy.

The snow depth is a calculated value that takes into account that 25% of my site is bare, snow having evaporated during yesterday afternoon, as there were bright sun and warm temperatures. The depth measured was 14 inches. My site is representative of south facing slopes and lakeshores in this area.

A lot of snow has gone over there in the last week. The terrain is hummocky. Spring pond areas are already full of snowmelt and rain from last week, which is frozen. There is frozen ponded water at the base of north facing slopes.
