★★★★★
I use this app all the time and love it. My only suggestion would be to make the snow depth the histogram and the temperature the line graph. That would make more sense to my simple mind. Keep up the great work!
★★★★★
Works pretty good. The snow depth is inaccurate while in map mode, yet when you click on Snotel site the data is correct.
★★★★★
Love the app. Would love if it where to update the data throughout the day
★★☆☆☆
Crashs If you try to load noaa location which is the ones you need to look at in usa it crashs. The noaa site you can list snow depth changes hourly or daily to see where the most fresh snow is.
★★☆☆☆
Great app, but needs updating. This app has all the potential, but it looks like SNOTEL just updated their site, and I think the collection data points have changes. Right now all SNOTEL info reads as "0" and the only way to grab snow depth information is to use NOAA which isn't updated as often. Fix the data problem, and it's a 5-star app!
★★☆☆☆
This app used to be pretty decent. Now all that will show is the map. There's no snotel sites. . . Bummer :(
