And it feels good!...

966MA was owned by a doctor who I met a couple of times. He and his wife
were nice people.

The snow itself will not stick but you will find ice in the snow
producing
clouds, particularly if the snow falling out of them is the "little
styrofoam balls" type. Sometimes there are no clouds when it is snowing
the
flake type. The flake type is formed by moisture going directly from
vapor
to crystal whereas the ball type is a collection of supercooled cloud
droplets frozen together.

So the bottom line is that you will not get airframe ice if you can see
where you are going.

In a typical spam can (say an archer), which has no deice at all
(save
pitot
heat), is it safe to fly in snow? More generally, of course the snow
will
bounce off and not stick to the wings (right?) but what about the
clouds
that
are producing snow - will they also produce airframe ice? If it's
above
freezing on the ground, and the clouds are very high, and it's
snowing,
then as
I climb I'll (yes?) climb above the freezing level - is there danger
in
that
transition when it's snowing? (I presume there's no freezing rain or
sleet,
else I'd see it on the ground, no?)
