Snow and Rain
I've never quite been able to find the answer to this question. In cities that list snow seperately from precicipation are we supposed to simply assume that snow is a subset of preciptation? I ask, because I've looked up source material, and they often conflict one another. For instance, annual aveerage precip is listed at about 31 inches for my city, and snow listed at 51 inches. Most sources I look list the 31 inch number as total precipitation, but other sources don't do it like this. What is the standard for the United States weatherbox template? Also, to confuse things even more, what is the reason beyond rain being given in mm and snow in cm for the metric measurements? Thanks. --Criticalthinker (talk) 10:12, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
