Sometimes I have to think about visibility when figuring this out. Like 1/4SM is at least 1-2/hr etc. It’s not easy. If you clear an area, it either blows off the board or blows in the area you cleared out.
It definitely effects snow reports. Sometimes windy areas near the coast aren’t getting less snow, it’s just wind compacted a bit. You see that a lot in he biggies. The snow seems dense despite it not being wet. It’s just packed down good.
