Not really, although condensation does release latent heat. Crystallization of snow flakes around nuclei isn't so much involved in this process.
The air at ground level or the air at the altitude where the snow forms? Snow forms in clouds and then falls. Therefore it can be and usually is warmer at ground level than in the clouds...Answer...water moisture freezes at 0° C or 32° F so it would have to be freezing in the clouds where the snow forms.
snow
The type of precipitation that forms when the air temperature is below 0 degrees Celsius is called snow.
Inhaled air is warmed and moistened in the nasopharynx and oropharynx.
When snow forms in clouds, it means that the air is cold enough for the water vapor to freeze into ice crystals. This process releases a small amount of heat, but overall, the air temperature around the snow-forming cloud remains cold.
When cold air moving down from the North moves over a large warm body of water, the air is warmed quickly and rises, causing large snow storms.

warms the air
When you exhale, the air has been warmed by your body during the breathing process. As you breathe in air, it first enters your nasal cavity, where it is humidified and warmed to body temperature. This warmed air then moves to your lungs for gas exchange, and when you exhale, that warmth is transferred to the exhaled air.
Snow is lighter than water because it is less dense. Snow forms when water vapor in the air freezes into ice crystals, creating a structure with more air pockets compared to liquid water. These air pockets make snow less dense, allowing it to float on water and appear lighter.
