[Geysers] Snow depth

[TSBryan at aol.com]

One advantage of the SnoTel site is that it also gives water _content_,  
which is a value more important than snow depth.

The reports are pdf's showing  temperature min/max, wind, etc. as well as 
snow depth measured all over  the Park.  West Entrance is up to 25" due to 1/2" 
new snow -  woo-hoo!  Old Faithful has 28" but also lots of bare areas per the  
cams.  My guess is the measuring equipment is near the Ranger  Station.

A few days ago, somebody asked (jokingly, perhaps) if there was any snow  in 
Yellowstone. Not much, I guess. As of today (2/18), the West Yellowstone  
SnoTel site reports between 28 and 29 inches on the ground there, a value that  
I'm guessing is less than half the "normal" for the date.
