Hi folks, Just had a little snow here, 1cm (ruler measured) and with the rain bucket heater setup i made,
The snow melt from it is spot on, bang on 1cm, very chuffed with the bucket setup, there is absolutely no
need to spend the hundred odd quid on the Davis heater :slight_smile:

A piece of bubble wrap covered in foil
1 bulb

Hi Bashy, we had snow here as well, with rain bucket heater on it melted the snow & showed 3.0 mm, I did not measure how deep the snow was but I would say a guess of about 10/15mm.

Sorry chap, didnt see your reply, by rights 3mm of water content should equate to about 3cm of snow :slight_smile:

Not sure about that, 1:10 approx. i.e. 1mm of rain = 10mm of snow approx. have a look on the net thereโ€™s a lot about it.

And 10mm = 1cm :slight_smile:
