AFAIK They’re both ice, Just snow is less compact because it falls as individual crystals that stack on top of each other, but then once it melts and refreezes the space in the middle is no longer there making it what we know more as ice. On the other hand you can put ice cubes in a blender to make slush, which is just wet snow
