There were no reports from Cambridge, but reports from surrounding areas would indicate between about 14" - 16".
Snow flakes.
Snow virga is a weather phenomenon that occurs when snow falls from high-altitude clouds but evaporates before reaching the ground. This results in streaks or wisps of falling snow that do not actually accumulate on the surface. Snow virga is often a sign of a dry atmosphere near the ground.
Just because snow stays on the ground for more than three days does not guarantee that it will snow again. The weather patterns in the area, temperature, and humidity levels will determine if it will snow again. Snowfall depends on a variety of factors, so there is no direct correlation between snow on the ground and future snowfall.
Snow is a much more complicated thing than most people think. It all depends on the temperature at cloud level, ground level and in between. If the conditions ain't right, it could fall as ice pellets, slush, hail, or rain. The usual temperature is -2°C on the ground to get snow.

Precipitation of snow on the ground.
This means that 6 inches of snow will fall. Since snow compacts as it sits on the ground, especially when it is deep and fine/dry (as opposed to a heavier wet snow), a 6 inch snowfall could compact to 4 or 5 inches right away.
Snow flakes.
If 1 foot of snow has fallen, the depth of the snow on the ground will also be 1 foot.
They fly to places without snow.
It will snow for like a couple days every few years and actualy put snow on the ground but not much, it usualy just melts right away.
The snow will stick to the ground if the ground is cold enough to keep the snow frozen. If the ground is too warm, it will melt the snow right as the snow hits the ground. The air temperature isn't always the same as ground temperature, keep in mind, because a solid, such as rock and dirt, holds heat longer than air. another answer:snow falls because the air in the cloud is too cold and form ice crystals,they then get too heavy and fall.falling snow gets enlarged while fallling but it also breaks into parts.when snow hits the ground it builds up and creates a mound of snow.when it gets hot the snow melts and evaporates and snows or rains somewhere else in the world

There is usually snow on the ground, but it certainly doesn't always snow.
It varies throughout the winter season, but on average, Ely, Minnesota typically has around 30-40 inches of snow on the ground during winter months. Snow depths can fluctuate due to snowfall rates and temperature changes.
