The formula to calculate the amount of snow from rain is:
\[ \text{S} = R \times \left(5 + \frac{T}{16}\right) \]
Where:
Converting rain to snow is the process of calculating the amount of snow that would fall from a given amount of rain precipitation if it was cold enough outside.
Let's consider an example:
Using the formula to calculate the amount of snow:
\[ \text{S} = 1 \times \left(5 + \frac{32}{16}\right) = 1 \times (5 + 2) = 7 \text{ inches} \]
This means that 1 inch of rain would be equivalent to 7 inches of snow at 32°F.
