Short answer ... counts snowflakes. Long answer… determines that at 9AM February 10th my driveway had approximately 1000 Gallons of packed snow on it. How do I know this? I counted. Here is how I did it. When I woke up on the 10th, I watched a few minutes of the weather report. The weatherman said get outside with your kids and enjoy the snow, because accumulation of this magnitude may never happen again while they are still small.
My son has been trying to make a snow fort every time it snows. When I went outside to shovel, I found the snow was perfect for building. I started filling up a 32 gallon tote with the wet snow and began to build the fort for my kids. So how do I know there were 1000 gallons of snow? I packed the 32 gallon tote 33 times! That equates to 231,000 cubic inches or 133.7 cubic feet of snow.
Anyhow, my kids had fun and so did your number crunching financial planner!
