The temperature has to be 32 degrees Fahrenheit or lower for snow to form in the atmosphere, but the temperature on the ground can be higher. On the ground, rain usually starts to turn to snow somewhere between 35 and 37 degrees F, but can be as high as 41 degrees, depending on how quickly the temperature changes in the atmosphere that the snow falls through. Snow usually starts to stick on the ground at around 34 degrees F.
The temperature of the air near the ground is the main factor in determining whether precipitation falls as rain or snow. If the temperature is above freezing, the precipitation will fall as rain. If the temperature is below freezing, the precipitation will fall as snow.
It is unlikely for snow to occur at 36 degrees Fahrenheit because snow typically forms when the temperature is at or below freezing (32 degrees Fahrenheit). The temperature needs to be cold enough for the precipitation to freeze and fall as snow rather than as rain.
No, snow can fall in different forms such as snowflakes, snow pellets, or snow grains depending on the temperature and atmospheric conditions. Snowflakes are the most common form of snow, but variations can occur.
Yes, it can snow in negative temperatures. Snow can form and fall when the air temperature is below freezing, which is typically below 0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
It doesn't matter what the humidity is at the surface. You need to be looking up somewhere around 5-10,000 feet and up near the 700mb pressure level. You're probably not forecasting the weather though, so it would suffice to say that the air in the atmospheric column will become saturated as precipitation moves in and sublimates. By the time snow reaches the ground, relative humidity is typically 90%+ at the surface.
Snow typically begins to fall when the temperature is at or below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).

The temperature of the air near the ground is the main factor in determining whether precipitation falls as rain or snow. If the temperature is above freezing, the precipitation will fall as rain. If the temperature is below freezing, the precipitation will fall as snow.
Snow falls when the temperature in the atmosphere is below freezing, typically around 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing, fall as SNOW . Water drops that fall when the temperature is above freezing fall as RAIN .
it is snow or feezing rain i belive
snow will fall when it is about 10.degrees Fahrenheit
Depending on the temperature, water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing can become sleet, ice, or snow.
In order for snow to occur, the ground temperature must be a temperature of 32 degrees or lower.
It would start to fall as rain or snow depending on the exact temperature however if it was colder near the ground it would turn into snow or ice.
Snow falls and a rapid change must occur such as a rapid change in the temperature, strong winds, or heavy snow fall.
It is unlikely for snow to occur at 36 degrees Fahrenheit because snow typically forms when the temperature is at or below freezing (32 degrees Fahrenheit). The temperature needs to be cold enough for the precipitation to freeze and fall as snow rather than as rain.
