Documenting Snow Accumulation with a Digital Camera



One of the suggestions made in numerous articles about digital cameras is to use them to document growth, the growth cycle, and even the growth of our students from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.

It got me thinking about how I do that at home every winter. We document precipitation because we live in the snowbelt. (like Marianne in Huntsville!) This morning I went out and snapped a picture of the accumulation for November 4th, 2006. We are expecting another 15 centimeters by noon.

(The picture to the left was taken February 21st, 2006, after a snow storm. The picture to the left was taken December 16th of last year.)
