There are different degrees of cold. Snow isnt necessarily bad, or cold. Leastways not to Coloradans. Compared to the 4th of July, snow is cold. But depending where you are in Colorado... it could very well snow on the 4th of July.. bad enough to close I-70. For a mild, easy falling snow without howling winds.. it isnt what I would call cold, while the snow is falling. Cold is the next level, that occurs worst while it isnt snowing. I would prefer it to snow on my tomato's than get cold.
Or indeed, a blizzard. Like the one my relative Israel Swan was caught in, whilst on a prospecting trip with Alfred Packer. That was cold.... and the least of Israels worries considering what happened next.
