![]() I now had a grid of points, each attributed with the snowfall accumulation value in inches. Then the Extract Values to Points tool to do just that – extract the values from the snowfall GeoTIFF to the gridded points. I used the Feature to Point tool to convert the polygons to a grid of points representing the centre of each hexagon. Enough for some detail, but not too generalised. After a little trial and error I settled on a hexagon that covered 50sq km (roughly 16sq mi). I intended to make a large format poster at A1 size (23.4in wide x 33.1in tall) which would be a map scale of 1:1,500,000. ![]() First, I used the Generate Tesselation tool in ArcGIS Pro to generate a hexagonal surface that would look good at my desired final scale. That’s a lot of snow!įirst…a little data processing because no map project would be complete without it. OK – let’s grab the data for the entire snowfall season to date. So it’s simply a case of downloading the snowfall accumulation data for the date range you’re interested in, conveniently as a GeoTIFF (don’t you love convenience?). While the symbology of the map above from the National Weather Center is questionable, actually it’s really just a representation of a dataset available for download. If you still can't get enough of these adorable stories, be sure to check out the Netflix adaptation of the book that captures the holiday vibes perfectly.But given the proliferation of such maps it seemed just the right time to make a map of California’s record snowfall and I had the perfect trifecta of inspiration: the USGS map Bentley’s recently digitised, and available microphotographs and a map purpose based on a current situation. (Anyone else asking for a teacup pig for Christmas now?) While chasing around a teacup pig as a present for her friend, Addie learns a lesson or two about being a good friend and girlfriend and even meets all the other characters at the Waffle House. Lauren Myracle's The Patron Saint of Pigs is even cuter than the teacup pig in the story. A series of car troubles and shenanigans help Tobin and the Duke realize their feelings for each other. In A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle, Tobin and his friends, JP and Angie (who goes by "the Duke") are traveling to their local Waffle House when they hear about the group of cheerleaders stranded there. ![]() If you've read anything by John Green, you know that he knows how to write the funniest *and* cutest romances. The two go on a snow-covered adventure, and *spoiler alert* they fall in love. While on the train to her grandparents' house, the train gets stuck in the snow and Jubilee meets Stuart. The first short story, The Jubilee Express by Maureen Johnson follows Jubilee, who's parents are spending Christmas Even in jail due to a strange series of events involving miniature decorative houses. Let It Snow will be your *fave* holiday book in no time. All of the stories end up connecting in the end, and the romances are *so* sweet and festive. All three stories are set in the same town, and follow different events after a big snowstorm in the area. ![]() Let It Snow is a collection of three holiday romance stories, each written by a different author. ![]()
