if the intercooler opening is stuffed with snow it's actually not going to work.

many WRC cars fail that way.

yeah but even if you cruise at moderate speed with mouthful of snow there's a good chance of the radiator not giving enough cooling and cause overheating. a pusher fan setup will also malfunction when it's stuffed with snow.

The coolant its self should be pretty good, since the ambient air around the fan wil be cold.
If it was any higher than 0 and I didnt have a mouth full of snow, it would over heat.
