The heaviest fall recor~ <br />ed was 65.0 inches at l&1rshall Pass, Colo., and there was from <br />8.5 to 29.4 inches over the Missouri area. The most general <br />snOws fell on the 16-17th. The warm days during the month were <br />favorable for packing and solidifying the snows in the gulohes <br />of the mountain regions, and, generally speaking, the drif'ts <br />were in (!;ood condition to last well into the sUll1lller." <br /> <br />"The average snowfall (in inches), for the various states <br />and areas derived from the records of such stations as reporied <br />snow, is as follows: Colorado area, 13.6; New Mexico area, <br />3.9; Texas area, 1.8; Kansas area, 3.2; Oklahoma, 4.0; <br />Missouri area, 14.8; Tennessee area, 9.4; Arkansas, 5.9; <br />IMssissippi area, 3.9; Louisiana 3.0." <br /> <br />"RIVERS" <br /> <br />"In Oklahoma all streams remained nearly stationary and <br />were below the normal February stage.
