My peak depth was 22.8cm Monday morning. Down to 15.2cm now. Is it common to lose so much depth from compacting? It’s been sub freezing other than a brief high of 0.3C today. Not sure melting explains it.

I think powdery snow is quite sparse, so a little bit of melting means more depth is lost. Less liquid in general than heavy wet snow, more air.

Re: February 2025 Forecasts And Discussions
Very common, but not all of the loss is from compacting -- much of it is from sublimation, which is made worse by the wind. Areas that are sheltered from the wind tend to hold onto their snowpack much better.

What’s a decent radar app that is accurate. Env Canada app is most accurate but is constantly an hour behind. Alternative I use is WeatherBug. Others?
