Where these numbers come from

Read next: Why storm depth matters more than snowfall and What a winter of snow weighs.

NOAA 1991 to 2020 climate normals from Tampa International Airport, 3.7 miles from Tampa. A normal winter, not this winter's forecast. Snow is weighed at 6.24 pounds a cubic foot, fresh and fairly dry; wet spring snow can weigh three times that.
