My Comment:
Just look at some of those rainfall totals, some are
over 300 per-cent. No wonder there was severe flooding when that rainfall is

I don't think it is a matter of "adding" that rainfall to lying snow, as
much of what was recorded as rain did in fact fall as snow during the great
snowstorms of that month.
