So I don't have the time to do the accurate SWE or snow depth. If I do just the gauge catch there is no way in your form to mark if the storm was frozen precip or liquid precip. That's losing a lot of information if we report just gauge catch and leave the snow field blank due to lack of time or resources. The reason it is so important to know if it's snow vs rain is because of warming temperatures due to climate change. And the comments aren't public on the map information or any accessible information to the public?
Watched today. New to the site. Enjoyed.
these refreshers are always great and a reminder of the proper way to report snow. I was reminded of a couple things I am doing wrong
Thank you for this. I have shared it in our Cannon County CoCoRaHS group for our observers to see.
