We’ll also be joined by our pals at Discover Magazine and Astronomy Magazine to lead a Science Quiz Show on Sunday, 2/14 at 11:30 am sharp! Answer some questions about science and win cool prizes!

All weekend-long, guests will learn how to get involved in Snow Tweets, an awesome citizen science project to help cryosphere researchers calibrate the accuracy of weather satellites. We’ll even get you started with a free ruler complete with instructions to simply stick the ruler in snow and tweet your snow depth measurement and location to #snowtweets!

Grab your free ruler and ground truth snow measurements during the next snowfall!
