Snowfall history map

[TKigle]

Hi there!

first of all thanks for the great work!

I am a snowboarder from Austria, and would love to suggest a function for the snowfall history for up to a week.. This allows us snowboarders to check where the snow really came down during the last days. Which is sometimes more important than the snow forecast.

Thanks!

@TKigle
If you cumulate the snowfall over several days, it will not give exactly the depth of snow, because the snow compacts gradually: Its density increases.
On Windy the Snow depth layer gives you directly the information as well as the snow density.

But because of the low resolution of the weather models, this information is very rough and quite inaccurate in mountains.

Thanks, @idefix37! I've made a short article out of your answer: http://bit.ly/snow-depth-forecast-map
