Illinois Grave Diggers Frost Depth Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/18.015 Summary This data set consists of ground frost observations made by gravediggers in Illinois. Frost depth and snow depth were determined visually at fresh excavations. In addition, subjective information was collected on surface conditions.
