I'm far from being any kind of expert, but yes, that's the way it looks to me.

The pavement and hard packed gravel roads run pretty close to the same, whether it's meltwater or rain, but the dirt roads, ditches, hills and coulees run very differently. My guess is that with meltwater, the ground is still frozen, so can't absorb the water.
