I have had a snow here recently ;o)
When some Vikings in the past where kicked out from here (Eiríkur Rauði) for killing to many people he found a Icy rock and called
lot of family's to join him there ,when people where unwilling to leave from Iceland he told them that after a careful consideration that
he would name the land Gænland (Greenland) as to fertile ground and grassy fields ,he had not so many trouble after that getting people
to join ;o)
Later on when the son of this man Leif son of Eric found Canada/America he did name that Vínland (land of vine) do to berry's who where
easy to turn to vine.
We have not much snow here NOW ,but sometimes ...
Those days can be nice ,but also if Eric the Red or his son Leifur would be selling trips ,somewhere south
)
