Yes, we are out in the snow on purpose. Our technicians are collecting snow core samples to quality-check our SWE sensors—because “looks right” is not a measurement. Find us on insta! @nysmesonet #SnowScience #FieldWork #SWE #QualityControl

🏔️ Avalanche Survival: 7 Life-Saving Moves 🏔️ 1️⃣ Sidestep fast, go sideways – an avalanche runs downhill like water; a few metres left or right can save you. 2️⃣ Ditch the heavy gear 🎒 – skis, poles, pack… lighter = quicker reactions. 3️⃣ Grab something solid 🌲🪨 – a tree or boulder can anchor you if escape space runs out. 4️⃣ Swim on your back 🏊‍♂️ – big back-stroke motions keep you closer to the surface. 5️⃣ Cup hands, make an air pocket 🤲 – carve breathing space as the snow starts to slow. 6️⃣ Punch a fist upward ✊ – leave a marker for rescuers before everything sets. 7️⃣ Stay calm, breathe slow 🧘 – panic burns precious oxygen; focus on steady breaths. ⛑️ Prep beats panic: always carry beacon, probe & shovel and ride with mates who know how to use ’em. 👉 For more daily outdoor smarts & science-backed insights, follow @nxtday – because being ready beats being lucky! #AvalancheSafety #MountainLife #Backcountry #SnowScience #SurvivalTips #TianShan #Kyrgyzstan #Hiking #ClimbSafe #StayPrepared 🏔️❄️

Ark Discoveries: Snow forms when tiny ice crystals in clouds stick together, creating beautiful snowflakes. When enough crystals bond, they become heavy enough to fall gently to the ground. #snowscience #winterwonder #naturediscovery #arkdiscoveries #arktvug

Learn how to make a Community Snow Observation with @AppMtnClub Science Communicator Ella! ❄ Take part in #SnowScience this winter and help scientists measure and track snow depth wherever you are (even in your backyard)!

Interested in learning snow science? We've partnered with Donner Memorial State Park to do two Snow Science Snowshoe Tours! We'll discuss why snow is important, the easy and complicated ways that we measure it, and do interactive demonstrations. #CitizenScience #SnowScience
