fresh snow
Just-fallen white blanket
Fresh snow is snow that has recently fallen and remains undisturbed—soft, powdery, and unmarked by footprints or melting.
Skiers prize fresh snow for its light texture and smooth surface.
The term often evokes pristine winter landscapes: The yard was covered in fresh snow this morning.
Fresh snow also has practical implications—it's easier to shovel before it compacts or ices over.
