snow as precipitation

If clouds are 0 C, snowflakes {snow, precipitation} form. Snowflakes have thin surface unfrozen-water film, which makes them stick to other snowflakes in special ways. That is why snowflakes are always hexagons. Snow can fall only above latitude 30 degrees. One foot of snow equals one inch of rain.
