No, not at all. It can only snow when the temperature is hovering around 0°C. So when we've had a cold snap of -25°C, and it snows, it has most definitely warmed up, considerably.

@scurry If you call that warm you are either insane or love living in a walk in freezer....

@scurry As someone that saw snow at -50F it is never too cold to snow, Yhe snow is as small assand, but it is still snow. found a reference [weather.com]

@glennlab Sure, but generally speaking, and especially regarding this meme, it is typically around zero (freezing) when it snows.

@glennlab, @Lizard_of_Ahaz welp, when the past 2 weeks or so ran -25 or -30°C, yes, I do call 0°C warm. It's all relative.

@scurry I remeber going out in shorts my last winter in Spokane when it got up to freezing, so Ifeel you.

@scurry So is incest but all things being relative 75F (23.9C) is what I consider warm....

@Lizard_of_Ahaz Well, that sure is an appropriate response. Thanks.

Snow happens when the air is warm enough to hold moisture and when it meets colder air. -30 would be pretty rare where I live (can't think of a singe instance actually ) but air that cold wouldnt hold must water
