[BC] Snow.blizzard fading?

[Tom Spencer]

Or just that snow is a better radio reflector than dirt, even dirt with 
several pounds of copper buried in it...

So that the fading doesn't magically "appear" or "disappear, it simply 
MOVES further in or out as the ground wave gets stronger or weaker...

You would then correctly claim that the snowstorm caused fading. It is likely that this kind of phenomena is the effect you observe.
