Searching for Fairbanks weather today shows rain despite it being -5F.
It should show the correct precipitation type. Calling Open-Meteo myself right now with a few relevant options included in the API call gives this response:
{
"latitude": 64.875,

"generationtime_ms": 0.09179115295410156,

},
"current": {

"precipitation": 0.10,
"rain": 0.00,
"snowfall": 0.07,
"showers": 0.00,

}
}
"weather_code": 71 indicates "Continuous fall of snowflakes (light)" so it seems like it should be displaying snowfall as the current precipitation type.
