Champagne powder was nominated for deletion. The discussion was closed on 10 March 2013 with a consensus to merge. Its contents were merged into Classifications of snow.

Should not this page contain significant references to the scientific classifications of types of snow resulting from the work of Ukichiro Nakaya? At the moment, the types mentioned seem to be completely ad hoc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.139.106.139 ( talk) 20:19, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
"Champagne powder" is just a dry kind of powder. It's nothing magical or special, despite being a trademarked term by Steamboat Springs ski resort. The sole source for the article is a German newspaper travel piece which mentions the term only once. Will Beback talk 23:32, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
The description for "lake-effect snow" describes it as "deposited on the lake's shores" — but people who live near the Great Lakes experience lake-effect snow falling at distances far greater than "the shore" — indeed, many kilometres. I think the description could use clarification? -- Mecandes ( talk) 21:23, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
Is there a name for what I call "brown snow": Snow on the roadside that gets mixed with dirt and crap from exhaust fumes to make a brown colour? This stuff. Steel Wool Killer / Lanolжeð Renforsdfer Tyklovon ( talk) 16:03, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

There needs to be a list of words for different forms of ice too, including all the different forms of ice (black ice, clear ice, glaze ice), frost (white frost, black frost, hoar frost, window frost / fern frost / ice flowers, advection frost / wind frost), hoar (surface hoar, air hoar, crevasse hoar, depth hoar), hailstones, ice pellets, glaze, etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.60.126.246 ( talk) 05:04, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

This article appears to be based on a vernacular understanding of how to classify snow as it falls and snow after it accumulates on the ground. This is reflected in its lack of reliable sources. I recommend that it be renamed, "Classifications of snow" and organized, as follows:
