[STORMREPORTS] [Fwd: How to take snowfall readings

This is good advice, folks, take a couple readings and average them out
to get your actual snowfall accumulation. Avoid grassy areas or areas
that may be warmed from beneath (example: cars, decks, etc.)

If blowing or drifting snow is happening, try to get an average. You
can report the depth of the highest drift as a drift. Avoid areas where
snow has actually "fallen" or overflowed from a structure to pile up -
such as a steep roof, this is not a valid drift because it was not
created by wind.

Thanks

For the rest of you 'all... If you wish to report snowfall
accumulations,
please take at least two, preferably 3 readings away from structures or
places where snow can't fall.
