Question 747680: Two inches of heavy, wet snow are equivalent to 1 inch of rain. Estimate the water content in 3 inches of heavy, wet snow. Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2 inches of snow = 1 inch of rain
therefore 1 inch of snow = 1/2 inch of rain
then 3 inches of snow = 3/2 inches of rain
or 1 1/2 inches of rain
