Well I am doing a experiment to see how fast the snow is melting in this awesome spring weather.

I check the piece of stick I stuck in the snow this morning and the stating measurement is

  • 8 Inches and was 36f @ 7:40am on 4/7/2008 > Stating Measurement
  • 10 Inches and was 65f @ 3:17pm on 4/7/2008 > Today we lost around 2 inches which was the average
  • 12 Inches and was 58f @ 5:30pm on 4/7/2008 > Today was lost around 2 more inches so, total snow melting for 4/7/2008 was 4-5 inches average.
  • 12 inches and 1/3 and was 48f @ 9:00am on 4/8/2008 > As for it not being very warm in the morning the snow did not melt very much but only around 1/3 of an inch more of the stick sticking out.
  • 14 inches and was 64f @ 4:00pm on 4/8/2008 > So far we lost a total around 8 or so inches of snow in just a few days, at this rate snow should be gone by the weekend in lower elevations
  • 16 inches and was 53f @ 6:30pm on 4/8/2008 > well it lost another 2 more inches, its going fast..

Well the results were that almost all the snow was melting within 3-4 days.  The snow where the stick was had melting away and could no longer support the stick and feel over and the wind moved it a little.  But this is a great sign and means summer is on the way or at least i hope, Today (4/9/2008) hit almost 75 degrees in the sun, and I am not joking. it was really warm, still a cold breeze but the sun was damn warm.
