I'd be happy if I never saw another flake for as long as I live

A trace might look interesting and something out of the ordinary for Sydneysiders.

Remember I posted another thread that my ideal average snowfall is 20~50 inches per year.

For my dream climate, 20 inches or slightly less would be perfect, so I put small amount.

I prefer a moderate amount of snow so about 100-120 cm (40-50 inches) per season would be suitable.
Maximum snow depth should be about 30-50 cm (12-20 inches) per winter.

None is good -which I get now. It's nice having heavy snow nearby though.

None. I have to laugh at the poll calling 51cm of snow a 'small amount'.

Small amount, just to keep things interesting. No more than a foot in a single season, and whatever falls melts quickly.

Whoops, I messed up some of the poll options.

100 inches is equal to 254 cm, not 381 cm (in "Very large amount").

Also, 5 inches is equal to 13 cm, not 25 cm (in "Very small amount")

This is what happens when one is up at 1am browsing the forums instead of preparing for work and getting to bed.
