    Wait, sorry to bother you again, get one cup of snow and then melt it, or have one cup of snow/"water" melted.

    Maggie, you got up early :-)

    gently scoop snow in to a one cup container, don't pack it, then figure out a way to melt it without it evaporating first.

    measure the water after it melts.

    mine is still melting but we can compair in about an hour or so.

    and please send me your email address or sign your post so it isn't just Anonymous

    Maggie,

    on the snow so far I have 1/8 cup plus 1 TBSP of water from my one cup of snow, I should measure the 1/8 into TBSP or teaspoons.

    Tablespoon abbreviated

    Tsp = teaspon
    TBSP = tablespoon

    Mine are also in metric so I have 45ml of melted snow right now.
