I def. volunteered that my max depth was 25" in that March 2018 event....I remember because I made a comment that it made sense that the spotter reported a storm total snowfall of 25". He stuck the ruler in the ground after dinner at the end of the day...I know I pointed that out.
I know the spotter....we are connected on social media at this point, and that is exactly what he did. He is an elementary school teacher....good dude.
