Info

If the bare spots cover less than 50% of snow depth area, average the bare spots with measurements from areas that have snow, and report the average value as your snow depth. If the bare spots cover more than 50% of area, regardless of how deep the snow is in the rest of the snow measuring area, report a trace for snow depth. Don’t report 0 snow depth until all but the manmade piles of snow are gone. What if there are bare spots?
