So I have a question for Otto or Theo - or any other expert out there on evaporation. When you look at this website for example - in SW NY where my pond is I am somewhere between 35-40 inches / year of evaporation. However - I have a hard time believing in the Months of N-D-J-F-M - really seeing how you get any evaporation since we usually have snow up to our yin-yangs (that's a technical term I think.

In any event is it legitimate to think of that evaportation chart in terms of maybe the 7 drier months? In which case - I should expect a number that is closer to an inch / week. 40 inches over app 40 weeks?

Any ideas? Just curious.
