Fun! Usually it’s roughly 10:1 - 12:1

They learned that it took roughly 48 ounces of snow but they learned that it also depends on how hot the burner is because the first couple were boiling off the water faster than it was melting… but it is also more packed snow because we didn’t get fresh snow last night too

Fun little project for them👏

Look up the latent heat of fusion. Blows the mind!

Let me clarify. 1inch of rain can typically bring about 10-12” of snow. Let us know what you find out!

Homeschool is the way.
