max SWE

[snowfan470]

Hi John,

Just curious as to what's the max SWE you've measured up your way this season, and what day was the measurement taken?

Thanks

I don't take daily SWE measurements all season. I start around early Feb and then do them every Monday, basically to help the NWS-MQT determine flooding potential with the snowpack.

My greatest measurement was 5.8" on Feb 3rd. Snowcover was 44". My deepest depth during a SWE measurement this season (so far) was on Feb 24th when I had 53" on the ground, with an SWE of 4.8.
