Template talk:Lansing, Michigan weatherbox

Precip edit

A kind of general question, but in a weatherbox that lists just average preciptation in a snowy climate, does that "average preciptation" include snowfall? It's kind of confusing to make comparisons. For instance, I was trying to compare total average precipitation to Pyeongchang County, but don't know if there's includes snowfall, though my guess is that it does. It's a bit confusing because snow is preciptation, correct? Also, why is average precip given in mm and average snowfall given in cm; why not give them the same unit of measure to make things more easily/instantly comparable? --Criticalthinker (talk) 06:19, 11 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Still can't find a definitive answer for this. When I do a general search online, it sometimes splits it into 31 inches for rain and 51 inches for snow, but I've also seen where they say 31 inches for rain + snow. Which is it? --Criticalthinker (talk) 10:01, 26 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
