* The sheer ''power'' of the snow bacteria monster in general is also worth pointing out. Just like how The Entity was capable of devouring universes, a process we saw in ''detail'' on ''Atop the Fourth Wall'', the snow bacteria has a [[ComboPlatterPowers myriad of abilities]]: It can manipulate and create snow, transmit themselves ''through'' UHF signals on top of manipulating them, and possesses an evolving intelligence that also enables them to mimic voices. These powers don't just make the bacteria a killing machine, it makes it a fullblown '''juggernaut''' that destroyed all of Fawn's Circle in a mere three days, before, if TheStinger at the end is of any indication, it simply moved to another town or emerged there months later.

And if TheStinger at the end is of any indication, even the snow melting only provides a temporary reprieve from its wrath, as by next December it simply moved to has reappeared in another town or emerged there months later.to do the same thing all over again.



* In the middle of the warning, the image of the weather radar is replaced with various blowing snow pictures, a fire truck stuck in the snow, Scott's Manor and the bloody skeleton. This is followed by the weatherman being murdered in the middle of the broadcast and the creatures manipulate the previous message to urge viewers to step outside.

* The epilogue seems to suggest that the beings were unable to escape when Fawn Circle was destroyed and the snow melted, but we see another station's lineup months later, which changes to their frightening messages, revealing they're still here.

** As stated above, the bacteria were practically unstoppable. The melting of the snow, and certainly not the heat of the Minnesotan summer, ultimately did nothing to these creatures. They may have lain dormant for the rest of the year, but they survived to reemerge in another town the following December. Nothing will stop them...nothing...

It's been confirmed by Lewis that the man Carl Denby saw at Scott's Manor in Segment 7 was the hysterical scientist from Segment 1.


* Just before the video ends, we're shown a scientist begging for help as a man in a bloodied shirt screams hysterically that something is going to kill them when a burst of snow busts down a doorway and we're cut away back to the end of the outro.

* Carl discovers the cameraman from Segment Two and, to their horror, [[AnArmAndALeg his legs are missing]]. He begs Carl to leave him and to warn everyone when it seems Steven Milbanks appears. Thankfully, Carl realizes something is off and escapes before the monster kills him, the cameraman's last words being to tell everyone "THEY'RE IN THE SNOW! THEY'RE IN THE DAMN SNOW!"

* We now know how the creatures can alter video tapes and cassettes as they influence ultra high frequency and magnetic media. Dr. Chandra believes they can use this because for food.

* Then Deputy Blair shows up and reveals what the cops are indeed dead, murdered by the snow creatures and he panickly begs them to board up the doors. Then "Steven" appears and Darcy is relieved... until he asks "Hey, can you help me with this?" and kills everyone.
