Snow Quality is a new feature I'm trying out that looks at the air temperature, wind, and precipitation that could ruin good snow. For example, when looking at the past 7 days, it might have rained 6 days ago and snowed 2 days ago but still will display "rained on". It will show the worst conditions during that time. However, looking 3 days back, it would display "powder" if the temperature stayed cold during those 3 days.
