PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — After a snowfall, we all like to brag about how much fell, so it is important to measure snow properly.
While it sounds like an easy task, you must follow some rules.

The best way to do it is to use a snow board.
Not the kind of snowboard you see at a ski resort.
The snow board you need is a 16″ x 16″ board painted white.

If you don’t have that, a picnic table will work, too.
