Have you ever wondered why snow is white? How come it isn't clear? In fact, it is made of water. Which is clear. So why isn't snow? Well scientifically snowflakes are clear. But piled up on each other so many times makes them the color white. But the color being reflected against the snow can also change the color. If the sun is setting, the snow might be pink from the pink sunset. But from a distance, (A very long distance sense we are on earth) the sun looks white. Which could also explain why the snow is white. Summary: snow is actually white which could be from the piles and piles of clear snowflakes or the fact that the sun reflecks on it, unless some other light is refleckted onto it.
