Water-saturated snow which with a heel-and-toe slap-down motion against the ground will be displaced with a splatter: specific gravity: 0.5 up to 0.8.

Water-saturated snow which can be blown if loose or, if compacted by hand, will fall apart again upon release; specific gravity: up to but not including 0.35.

Snow which has been compressed into a solid mass that resists further compression and will hold together or break up into lumps if picked up: specific gravity 0.5 and over.
