1/11/2018 7:00 AM 0.26 1.8 0.26 2.0 M That liquid equivalent is correct. I took two different "cores" and both had a snow-liquid ratio of 7:1. The snow was fine, high density (probably broken) flakes because winds were 20-40 mph.

1/13/2018 7:00 AM T 0.1 M 2.0 M Flurries yesterday afternoon and evening, and even a brief burst of light snow around 1 PM.
1/14/2018 7:00 AM 0.15 1.3 0.16 3.0 M Melted core was .01" more than what was caught in the gauge. Since it was very close, I kept the value from the gauge.
1/15/2018 7:00 AM T T M 2.5 0.35 Just a little bit of light snow around 9 PM.

1/21/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Most snow is gone, just some left in shady spots. Decided not to carry a trace of liquid since it was more mist/cloud droplets than it was drizzle.
1/22/2018 7:00 AM 0.32 1.8 0.25 2.0 0.25 0.07 from light rain and drizzle yesterday, then 0.25 from wet, pasty snow that developed overnight. The ground was basically bare prior to the snow. So the core for snow on the ground is the same for what has fallen with this event. Core was also taken because of the wind. Snow is on-going at ob time.
1/23/2018 7:00 AM 0.23 1.8 0.23 3.5 M Storm total: 3.6. Snow ended around 11 AM. Because of the wind, a core was taken to obtain the best liquid possible.
1/24/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.5 M Snow depth ranges from patches of 0 (where winds were highest during the storm) to 4. Because there is still so much on the ground of 2-3 inches, depth, I went with 2.5".
1/25/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 1.5 M Depth very difficult because snow cover was no uniform from the last snow. There are substantial bare areas with substantial areas averaging 3". So, I took the average of both.
1/26/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Most snow on the ground is gone, except in shaded or drifted areas.
1/27/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M T M Just a few small patches of snow left on the ground, mainly in shady areas and where drifts formed. Most of the ground is bare.

2/4/2018 7:00 AM 0.17 1.7 0.17 1.5 M Melted core from straight off the board. Was a bit surprised this was a 10:1 ratio given that it was a dry relatively fluffy snow. Snow still falling at ob time.
2/5/2018 7:00 AM 0.10 1.2 0.10 2.5 0.25 Snow ended by 10 AM yesterday. Took core off board to get liquid equivalent. Then took core this AM for snow depth.

4/15/2018 7:00 AM 0.15 1.2 M 4.5 M Blizzard was in progress at ob time yesterday. Snow continued until late morning, then a little more fell late afternoon. Both the liquid equivalent and the snow are estimated. Used the same snow-to-liquid ratio as the core from yesterday. Snow depth varies from 1.5" to 6 ft drifts.
4/16/2018 7:00 AM 0.00 0.0 M 2.0 M This snow depth is highly subjective. I took the average where I measured the snow depth the last 2 days. It varied between 0 and 4 inches, but there is extensive drifting 2 to 6 ft deep still.
