Snow depth paradox
Despite continuous, and occasionally moderate snow for the last 6
hours, the measured snow depth has decreased from 11 cm to 10 cm. It
looks as though the combination of slow melting on the top as the
temperature rose from 0.3 C to 0.9 C , and the weight of relatively
wet flakes, has compressed the light fluffy snow that accumulated
during yesterday.
