Please help to find the most common term for "snowfall". It should be a noun. I found "sniego griūtis", "snigimas" and "sninga" and do not know what to choose.

sniegas
If it's just a heading, it's probably about how much snow Lithuania gets in winter. In that case I would simply put (SNIEGAS = SNOW). Justa as the heading fro RAINFALL might be simply LIETUS.

iškritusio sniego kiekis
Are there any context, as it is hard to say if it is "snigimas" or "iškritusio sniego kiekis" or smth else? In some cases it also may be "sniego dangos storis". If there is no context I would probably translate it as "iškritusio sniego kiekis"
Note from asker:
| no, it's just a separate word in the topic of winter. |
| No, it's not a header. I need this word exactly as a snowfall, as a nature phenomenon. |

snigimas
If it is a nature phenomenon, it is "snigimas". To be sure we need to see the whole phrase.
