"The Snow Booklet," as its name implies, is a short book (88 pages) about a fascinating subject. Anyone who has ever seen and touched snow, and watched it as it falls from the sky, cannot help but be amazed by its beauty and complexity. "The Snow Booklet" describes, in simplified terms, many facets of snow -- how it forms, how it falls, how it changes, how it melts and how it affects us on the ground including the hazards it presents. Detailed maps, tables and graphs are used to show the patterns and variations in snowfall experienced across the country. Photographs and cartoons help describe this remarkable substance. Special emphasis is given to the measurement of snow -- why it seems so simple and yet can be one of the most difficult meteorological measurements. Detailed instructions on how to measure snow accurately and consistently under a wide range of weather conditions are presented. Table of Contents
