Let snow pile up while it falls and melt away in patches, not all at once

A winter chapter is stronger when the world changes with the weather: the snow builds, the ground shows through as it warms, and the last white lies in the shade. The easy way, one number that fades a white overlay, looks like a filter. Here is how to get depth, patches and a result that does not depend on the step size.

Why this works

Snow packs down under its own weight, so a deep pile grows more slowly than a thin one, and melting wins first where it is thin or sunny. Tracking one depth and giving each patch its own limit makes the ground turn white and bare in spots.

When not to use it

Skip it in a game with a short snowfall that must look the same for everyone, or one where the snow itself is a puzzle piece. Use a fixed picture or an exact count there instead of soft, uneven patches.
