About This Product
A snow gauge measures solid precipitation such as snow. The collector catches what falls, the wind shield reduces the effect of wind on the catch, and the collected snow is melted so its depth as water can be read in millimetres with measuring glasses. Meteorology lessons use it together with rain gauges to record all forms of precipitation at a station.
