Snow depth changes

Posted: 26 Jan 2009 06:19 AM

The featured chart is the frequency of daily snow depth changes when there is snow on the ground based on 43 years of data from Ames. During the winter time, the most common thing to happen is no change. This plot would indicate that having the snowpack decrease is more likely than increase. The height of the stacked line chart indicates overall frequency of having snow on the ground. Light fluffy snow is in the forecast for this week, so more green than red for us.
