"Device" is a stretch. I just turn a 4" cocorahs gage upside down and push it into the snow, slide a piece of aluminum flashing under it, and bring it inside to melt. It's not perfect, but it's easy enough and at least seems to be in the ballpark.

Have you compared results between cuboid vs a simple core?
-
Melted core sample was 0.93" from 6.4" of snow (just under 7:1). It was pretty much all frozen; maybe a drop or two of rain mixed initially, but maybe not. It looked like all sleet. There could have been a hundredth or two that escaped, but I have no way of determining that.

744 days was a pretty good run.

6.4" here. 11.6" for season. 35° cloudy

I refuse to re-live that nightmare.
-
Sleet / snow mix now. Didn't expect to see any snow for a few hours.
-
Precip just started here as sleet. 38°

Watch for breaking tree limbs.

It's got my attention now.
-
Won't be the first heavy snowfall following a 60⁰ Superbowl weekend.
-
The bar is even lower if we take the 1 year moving average. With so much variability for so long, I have no confidence on what we will experience as average snowfall, which is affected by more than just average temperatures. If we don't get something in the next 7 or 8 weeks, it's over.

I forget who/what had which torch and when, but the last 9 days here, while notably above normal, do not seem torchy. Biggest positive departures were on the mins...which have lead to a low diurnal difference most days. I think today (2/3) was the only one of the 9 with any sunshine: 1/26 41 45 1/27 39 43 1/28 35 40 1/29 34 40 1/30 33 37 1/31 31 39 2/1 30 46 2/2 36 42 2/3 31 42

It was the other way around. The snow showers were with the arctic front on 2/16/73. They were more organized on LI where most spots picked up 2 or 3 inches.
-
Woo hoo, the January thaw is over!
-
Kocin and Ucellini are already working on the case study.
-
As of 1/29, 6.49" precipitation here for January. Add that to the 10.23" for December and its a 2-month total of 16.72". Kinda wet!
-
I took a group out for a hike in Calverton this afternoon and it was spitting tiny graupel most of the time. I even told them what graupel was.
-
I was thinking of some of the claims that it would take a long time to reload cold air into Canada.
-
Anchorage averaging 2.6°F below normal for both December and January and snowfall has been more than twice normal. They had a 16" snowfall this week, which is a biggy for Anchorage and current snow depth is 37". Plus they might come close to some record lows over the next week.

The January 19-20 (17") snowstorm in 1978 was a surprise. The overnight forecast was for an inch or two of snow changing to rain and we woke up the next morning to a raging blizzard. The February 6 blizzard was talked about days in advance. I remember that I brought a portable radio to my indoor track meet on Saturday (2 days before the storm) so that I could get forecast updates during the day. Like most here, I've been at this since I was a kid.
