By definition no.
Snow is frozen water.
Percipitation is formed by water evaporating and going into the atmosphere, then if it is cold enough (ie. 0 C) then it will snow.
During the evaporation process the salt is left behind if it was ever in the water.

Does it snow anywhere near an ocean?
I guess it could near the poles perhaps
Are ice glaciers in salt water?
Icebergs that break off into the ocean from glaciers do not contain salt, as they are formed by freshwater on land (snow, ice). Icebergs that form in the ocean mostly do not contain salt either. This is because as the seawater freezes, it forms a crystal structure (ice) that prevents salt ions from being included.
Does the penguin live in the ocean?
No they don't, some live on rocks and some on snow but live in the ocean just near water.
Does snow have salt in it?
Yes, snow have salt in it.
What are the Great Lakes used for What river connects them to the Atlantic Ocean?
what does the moisture near the Great Lakes do to the amount of snow that falls there called "lake effect snow"
Are reservoirs fresh or salt water?
Inland ponds (ie, not near the ocean) are normally fresh water, and are formed either by precipitation (rain, snow, etc.) or by underground, or artesian water sources. Large ponds of this type are often called kettle lakes, in that they have no visible source of water supplying them, such as a river or stream. Ponds can also be formed by receding ocean tides and, in this case, will contain salt water. Of course, when the tide rises again, the pond will simply become part of the ocean, so these ponds are not permanent but exist only when the tide is out.
Does snow contain air?
Yes infact snow does contain air.
Would putting salt on snow be dangerous?
no the salt only makes the snow melt faster
What does rain and snow provide us with?
Fresh water. If there was no rain and snow the standing pools of water (dams, lakes etc) would slowly drain into the ocean leaving us with only salt water to drink.
Is there ice under the ocean?
Yes, ice can form in ocean water. However, it must be colder than 0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit.The salt in the ocean water inhibits freezing and makes ocean water freeze at a colder temperature than fresh water.In fact, it must be approximately -2 degrees Celsius (or 31 degrees Fahrenheit) for most ocean water to freeze if it is perfectly still. If the water is rough or moving, it must be colder.Small Addition/sidenote (AY12345): Ocean water is a solution of salt water. Whenever a salt is present in water, the freezing point lowers due to the presence of ions (this phenomenon is known as freezing point depression). A good application of this is during winter. When the roads are slick with snow/ice, salt is usually placed on roads to prevent further freezing.
Why has salt been thrown on snow in snowfall days?
Salt is thrown on snow becuase it is The most effective Element to melt snow/ice
What is snow salt?
its salt......seriously..thats all it is...
