For this quiz, and the driest quiz, you should change the description from precipitation to rain. Snow is precipitation, and that would change your answers.

The description is accurate. If it snows 10 inches, only 1 or 2 inches will count towards precipitation.

I'd have gotten them all if I'd remembered that the capital of Florida isn't Jacksonville. Duh.

Georgia and Atlanta are reversed in this quiz. I typed Georgia and it was declined but the answer was Atlanta.

I'm wondering the percentage of people who tried Honolulu because it's the wettest state. The back side of Oahu, technically all of which is Honolulu, does get a lot more rain than the city, which is always calm, clear, and 78.

All the Hawaiian islands are divided by mountains and have a windward side (Rainy side) and leedward side (not rainy). The mountains catches the rain clouds and some parts of Hawaii are the rainiest in the world.
