    We ban accounts that post nationalistic flamebait, so please don't post like this again. Tired clichés like bickering over measurement systems aren't needed either. I get that you intended it as a joke, but the hivemind doesn't consider that when going to war. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

  Quite interesting that rain in America is measured in inches ... per square meter.

    It might be reported that way, the measurement is not so. https://www.weather.gov/iwx/coop_8inch https://www.weather.gov/iwx/coop_8inch

    no, just "inches". If you report the height, the surface area is irrelevant.
