Measuring snowfall is often not easy! Sometimes the snow is fluffy and wind blows it into uneven piles. Sometimes the snow falls as a slushy mess with melting and compaction both working to reduce its depth. Early spring season snowfalls during daylight hours can receive significant melting even with cloudy conditions as solar insolation will heat the surface. So measuring the snowfall from Thursday is fraught with peril and the featured map will need updated later today as more reports are received and a better analysis can be made. The highest totals were found over far eastern Iowa with a few reports of six inches made.
