    First, we need to determine the entire area of your front line by multiplying its length times its width.

    18.0*20.0 = 360.0 square feet

    We can use the rate of accumulation of snow, combined with this figure, to determine how much snow accumulates on your lawn per minute.

    360.0 sq ft * 1050 flakes/min/sq ft = 378,000 flakes/min

    We can then use the mass of a snowflake to calculate total snow accumulation per minute.

    378,000 flakes/min * 2.00 mg/flake = 756,000 mg/min

    Finally, we can use this number to determine accumulation per hour.

    756,000 mg/min * 60 min/hr =

    45,360,000 mg/hr
