RussianAfter few attempts, I found a solution by rasterising all the features singularly and then performing cell statistics in order to calculate the average. See below the script I wrote, please do not hesitate to comment and improve it! Thanks!
#This script processes a shapefile of snow persistence (area of interest: Afghanistan).
#the input shapefile represents a month of snow cover and contains several features.
#each feature represents a particular day and a particular snow persistence (low,medium,high,nodata)
#these features are polygons multiparts, often overlapping.
#a feature of a particular day can overlap a feature of another one, but features of the same day and with
#different snow persistence can not overlap each other.
#(potentially, each shapefile contains 31*4 feature).
#the script takes the features singularly and exports each feature in a temporary shapefile
#which contains only one feature.
#Then, each feature is converted to raster, and after
#a logical conditional expression gives a value to the pixel according the intensity (high=3,medium=2,low=1,nodata=skipped).
#Finally, all these rasters are summed and divided by the number of days, in order to
#calculate an average value.
#The result is a raster with the average snow persistence in a particular month.
#This output raster ranges from 0 (no snow) to 3 (persistent snow for the whole month)
#and values outside this range should be considered as small errors in pixel overlapping.
#This script needs a particular folder structure. The folder C:\TEMP\Afgh_snow_cover contains 3 subfolders
#input, temp and outputs. The script takes care automatically of the cleaning of temporary data
