Distributions of present weather and snowpack conditions for rain-on-snow (ROS), rain-on-snow plus snow water equivalent loss (ROS + melt/drainage), and warm day melt
(A) Histogram showing the distribution of 6-h maximum temperature (°C) for ROS (orange), ROS + melt/drainage (red), and warm day melt (purple) events.
(B) Box-percentile plots showing the distribution of ROS, ROS + melt/drainage, and warm day melt events for varying temperatures. Dashed lines represent first quartile, median, and third quartile values with first quartile in bold to draw the connection to the development of the framework in Snowpack runoff decision support framework section.
(C and D) As in panels (A) and (B), but for density (%). (E) and (F) As in panels (A) and (B), but for 6-h precipitation (mm).
