Inches of...? Seems to be something moderately less dense than mercury, but much denser than water, at least judging by the options this here unit-conversion program gives me for 25 kPa. Surely snow is less dense than water, so the kPa numbers are much too high. Unless I'm totally spacing out.
Ricken8or: forethought? It's a piece of heavy cardboard under a layer of clear tape. You stab it through the snow at a flat spot on the ground. I've used it for snow measurement photos before.

Nice forethought to put it within camera range.
ReplyDeleteAnd here, a hundred twenty miles or so north of you, it stayed above freezing all through the event.
ReplyDeleteOdd, that.
Thanks for the chart.
ReplyDeleteWith that sorted out, I just need to know how many kilograms are in a mile, and I'll be able to perfect the invention I'm working on.
And we've got 80 degrees today... Weird weather this spring, no question!
ReplyDeleteOurs just melted. North of here they got about 10 inches and the weatherman is saying some more on Tuesday. So much for global warming.

The kPa numbers are a joke.
ReplyDeleteWell, actually, the numbers aren't, the units are. Can anyone guess what the real units are?

ReplyDeleteNot kPa, but minutes to shovel the walkways?
