There is a variation between years here.In the winter of 2013/2014 snow cover was quite thin, maximum was 8 cm only and most of the winter there was no snow on the ground - that is untypical in here. At the same time winters of 2009/10, 10/11 were snowier than average with 36-40 cm of snow. Weatheronline's climate robot says highest average snow depth in February is (data of Tartu) is 14.6 cm.

It snows without a cold snap in Sweden, are you calculating the maximum snow depth in your area excluding the years it hasn't snowed, or are you taking a 'no snow' winter into account?

12 inches. Range in the last 30 years is 5.8 inches to 24 inches. Possible underestimate due to missing station data.

Around 10-15 cm is the maximum depth. Rarely more.

2 inches maybe? Some years the most I see is ice and/or a few flakes, and others there can be a storm that brings much more than 2 inches.

I live in a suburb of Tucson, a metro that has a variety of elevations within it. I have lived here for nine years and in my suburb we've had about an inch of snow three times since I've been here. In each case it hung around less than half a day before it melted. We've had a few winters where snow wasn't even visible in the part of the Catalina Mountains I can see from my house. Only twice in these nine years has there been any significant run-off of melted snow from the mountains that made it to the Cañada del Orowash running behind the housing development where I live.
