		Key		Complete cover of snow at 0900				8	Confirmed depth of snow in cm at 0900										*Eden Days-Snow Index: (Eden Winter Snow Index): Philip Eden has defined as follows .. ' Add together the snow depth in centimetres for all days with snow-lying at 0900Z.. Thus one morning with a 10cm cover, and ten mornings with a 1cm cover, would each score 10. The units, for the sake of argument, might be called "cm days" '. This can be used as a 'running-total' through a particular winter to compare different areas of the country (alongside such as numbers of days of snow-lying at 0900, numbers of days air minimum temperature < 0.0C (or other threshold) etc., or to put winter 'snowiness' in historical context.
