|Meteorologists report snow depth in cm, so this is default unit for Cumulus. If there is an entry in the Weather Diary for Today's date, and current time is between the '''SnowDepthHour''' time (in [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station]], default is 9 a.m. for Cumulus 1, and midnight for MX) and subsequent midnight, returns the value set there for depth. Returns 0 otherwise. If time before '''SnowDepthHour''', looks at previous day's date in Weather Diary and reports any non-zero value there, otherwise reports zero.  

 

{{Version badge 1}} Input and output is always as integer. Available from very early builds, weather diary input amended from version 1.8.6 14th April 2009 to allow units to be specified on diary edit screen. If you choose to enter as whole millimetres, you can use JavaScript (or another script language) on your web page to divide the web tag by 10 and get centimetres to 1 decimal place on output.  

 

[[File:Badge vMx.png]] Input is to 2 decimal places. Available from version 3.1.1 - build 3054 when weather diary editor was added to MX.  MX allows output in centimetres with decimal places without any script. You can't change the units shown in admin interface, but your value can be input as inches to 2 decimal places if you ignore "cm" that is displayed in that interface.

|{{Version badge 1}}Although this tag is not available in Cumulus 1, your web page can use a script to check if <#snowdepth> is non zero, as that means snow is lying

 

[[File:Badge vMx.png]] Available from version 3.1.1 - build 3054.  If there is an entry in [[Weather Diary]] for Today's date, and (if '''SnowDepthHour''' time (in [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station]] is defined) current time is between the Snow update time (in [[Cumulus.ini]]) and midnight, then this web tag returns zero if snow lying check box not ticked or one if checkbox is ticked. If no Weather Diary entry found, this web tag returns Null.

|{{Version badge 1}} Not available in Cumulus 1. There is no web page workaround, unless you write a script that reads [[Weather Diary]] and makes relevant information available on your web server.

 

[[File:Badge vMx.png]] Available from version 3.1.1 - build 3054.  If there is an entry in [[Weather Diary]] for Today's date, and (in [[Cumulus.ini#Section:_Station]] is defined) current time is between the Snow update time (in [[Cumulus.ini]]) and midnight, then this web tag returns zero if snow falling check box not ticked or one if checkbox is ticked.
