Wouldn't water that freezes on the ground just turn into ice? Granted, I'm hardly versed in meteorology and the water cycle beyond what I learned in middle school, but my understanding is that snow is a form of precipitation, which by definition requires aerial condensation.The Romulan Republic wrote:If you're referring to snow falling in the on-screen visuals (can't recall much detail as I haven't watched TESB in a while), then couldn't that just be snow getting blown around by the wind?

Could the snow be from ice being melted and evaporated by volcanic activity?

I already considered volcanoes or geysers. But in order for volcanoes/geysers to produce enough precipitation to account for whats seen on-screen, the wourld would end up a festering swamp from the HEAT they also produce.
