Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-009165

Snow that falls or persists during the spring season, characterized by its higher water content and tendency to undergo frequent melt-freeze cycles. This type of snow often becomes wet and heavy during the day due to increasing solar radiation and warmer temperatures. It can contribute to rapid snowmelt and increased runoff, impacting river levels and water resources.
