What is the record rate of snowfall?
You wouldn't be able to pin this kind of record down in a specific place at a specific time. But the highest snowfall rates tend to occur in the heaviest lake effect snow bands and are accompanied by thunder and lightning. This light fluffy snow can accumulate up to about 7-8" in one hour, though rarely does it last for even that long. It would be really hard, for complex physical reasons, to snow much more than that.
How is snowfall mesured?
Meteorologists measure three things, says Dr. Moran: "The depth of snow that falls between successive observations, the meltwater equivalent of that snowfall and the depth of snow on the ground at observation time." Dr. Moran tells us how to measure a storm's snowfall like the experts. "Prior to an anticipated snowfall, place a simple wooden board on the ground.…New snowfall accumulates on the board, and at observation time a ruler is used to measure the snow depth to the board. Record the snowfall…and sweep the snowboard clean so that it is ready to receive new snowfall. Repeat this process throughout the snow event, and then compare your total snowfall with that reported by the local television or broadcast meteorologist. Note that snowfall is notoriously variable from one place to another with considerable differences within the District and across northern Virginia and adjacent Maryland." These differences depend upon things like temperature, the distance you are from the ocean and the track of the storm, he says.
