The Maine Geological Survey and the USGS coordinate the colletction of snow measurements each winter for the Maine River Flow Advisory Commission's flood prediction report. These measurements are sent to MGS monthly in January and February and weekly in March, April and May as long as there is snow on the ground. The dataset contains all the raw snow survey measurements (depth (inches), water content (inches), and density), their locations, data quality, and other qualitative comments or observations. These measurements are used to create the snow survey statewide maps.

These measurements are used to create the snow survey site summary graphs. These graphs show the water content measurements by defined date range for the current year and the complete historical mean, minimum, maximum, and percentiles
