I’m playing on PS5 with the latest update, and am currently on Winter 7 in year 1. It’s snowing today and during the day the snow looked normal, but once it got dark, the snowflakes turned black.

I don’t know if this is something you’re already aware of, but I thought I would let you know!

Let me know if you need more information. This is the first time this has happened to me, but it’s also the first time it’s snowed in my game.. I’m hoping it isn’t the same in a blizzard because I feel like I won’t be able to see my character, or anything else for that matter 😅😂

It’s not a game-breaker obviously, but it is pretty weird to look at so I hope it can be fixed soon! 🫶🏻

Hello @frank estuary Thanks for the heads-up! I’ll pass this to the team—if we need more details or have updates, I’ll get back to you.

Hello again @frank estuary if you could replicate the issue, could you record a video or screenshot and send it here so we can take a closer look?

it hasn’t snowed again so far, but next time it does i’ll record a video and send it here. it might take a while though, i’ve only had 1 day of snow in over 2 weeks of winter lol so i don’t know how long it’ll be until i get another snow day!

That’s totally okay — whenever it snows again, feel free to send the video here! In the meantime, I’ll relay this to the team for checking. approve2

hi! it snowed again, and here is the video of the black snowflakes. it started around 9 or 10pm i think? i wasn’t paying much attention earlier than that, i just noticed it when i was fishing later at night 😅 i do know that the snow was still white at 8pm.. i’m not entirely sure when evening turns to night though 🧐

I'm on PS5 and I've just gotten black snowflakes too! Added a video for reference!

I saw this on PC/steam as well. its starts getting darker at 8 and is black by 10. I have a video but wasn't able to export it. I can get help with it tomorrow. I think it might be intentional to make it feel more like its getting darker, but I think the snow should stay white even if it makes the night brighter. moonlit winter nights ARE brighter than snowless nights due to reflecting off the snow anyway so it doesn't seem strange to me.

@foggy vapor I have a video of the snowflakes, but its too large to send. Can I DM you a link to it in my onedrive?
