I saw your explanation and moved it to Discussion comments below. To answer your question - No. That small bit of rain won't melt so much snow. 3mm is only about 1/80 of 25cm. It would take a lot more rain and very warm temperatures to melt that snow in one day. Then your area would likely have flooding.

0.15 inches of rain is how much snow?
This will depend on how cold it is, but on average 10 inches of snow = 1 inch of rain, so 0.15 inches of rain = 1.5 inches of snow. It could be less than in inch of wet snow, or more than 2 inches of powder, however.
Do most of the world receive More rain than snow?

Is it less likely to snow the colder it is?
Snow is frozen rain, which means the colder it is, the more likely it is to snow! This is why rain melts snow, as it is warmer. Snow is just rain, but a bit colder, so it's frozen. If it's very cold, below 0 degrees Celsius, and it doesn't rain but the clouds go dark, it is more likely to snow heavily and thickly, than to rain.Hope that helped you!
