Re: [STORMREPORTS] Minnesota may get enough snow to break the drought.

Generally speaking...

An above average snowy season usually won't be enough
to break a drought. In order to do that, there would
have to be 100s of inches of snow. The water content
of snow up that way would also be a huge factor. Lets
say it's the standard 10:1. That would translate 50
inches of snow into 5 inches of rain.

If there has been a drought for years up that way,
then 5 inches of rain wouldn't even make a dent.
