It's all a trick to keep you puny non-weather people guessing and in a panic to help fuel our connections with the bread and milk lobby. Bwahahahaaa!

just look at a regular radar if it gives you trouble or there is no scale on the winter one...

^ good idea, im just having a little trouble finding the normal looking ones.

but on the other ones, which type of grey is heavier. light grey or dark? which is the drizzle of snow.

To be technical you won't even have moderate snow until the visibility is < or = 1/2 mile. Heavy snow is < or = 1/4 mile.
