The reference guide and the Rainfall Events Calculator provided by the USGBC alternatingly use the terms 'rainfall' and 'precipitation; while this is fine for temperate climates, it leaves us northerners scratching our heads a bit. For the purpose of identifying the 95th percentile rainfall event, how should projects consider precipitation falling as snow? Exclude those events from the calculation?

While the fact that most of the credit language has been tweaked to focus on rainwater (as opposed to stormwater or precipitation) indicates they're likely focusing only on rain events, it would be great if the Reference Guide cleared this up with a few specific comments on how to handle snow (other than just bundling up).
