Snow: Difference between revisions

Snow refers both to the weather event, and to the precipitation often accumulated on the ground, roofs, and outdoor fixtures after a snowstorm if temperatures are cool enough. Snow in ''The Sims 2 ''can fall either as light snow (or flurries) or as heavy snow. After it has been snowing constantly for a time, the game will cover the ground and roofs of any structures with a thin layer of snow. If the snow continues, it will completely bury most parts of the ground (including items that may be sitting low on the ground, such as newspapers or shrubs), but will not accumulate on large paved surfaces like roads or driveways; or on water. After it has stopped snowing, the snow will begin to melt; after a while, the depth of the snow will decrease noticeably; if this trend continues, the snow will completely disappear and puddles of melted snow will remain in on the ground. If enough snow falls, particularly at night, [[school]] for young Sims may be canceled.

Snow will most likely fall during the winter season, but may also occur during late fall, and also in early spring. Snow should not be confused with [[hail]], a much more dangerous form of frozen precipitation that can also occur during winter in-game.
