FunAdvice Trivia: How many inches of snow must be melted to equal 1 inch of water?

8 inches

. Yes - They are all correct. It can be anything from about 3 inches of show to one inch of water (in the case of wet slushy snow) to about 12 inches of snow to one inch of water (in the case of very dry powdery snow). . Furthermore, a deep fall of snow e.g. a 30 inch layer will yield more water per inch from the lower layers, where the snow will have become more granular, than the top layers where it is typically more powdery. .

I have to agree with majikthise there is a difference in moisture in the type of snow…therefore how many inches would be needed to generate an inch of snow would depend on the snow itself.

It can vary but it’s typically 10 if the temerature is between 22 and 34 degrees (and it usually is when it snows) The answer is D. 10

You have a good point, but most of the time the answer is gonna be 10. 10 is the standard.
