AI Analysis

The snow mound is next to a parking lot lamp, which is around 15-20 feet tall, providing a reliable reference for height estimation. The mound appears slightly taller than the lamp, so I estimated it to be about 20 feet tall. Assuming a roughly conical shape and estimating that the base diameter is about twice the height, the volume is approximately 2094 cubic feet. Using an average snow density of 20 lbs per cubic foot, the mass is approximately 4,000 tons.
