It's sunny and light snow is not cold.

The whole city is stained with snow, and the white railings are as white as jade. It won't be cold when it is sunny and there is light snow.

From Song and Huang Tingjian's Three Poems of Zhang Mi School with Two Rhymes and Happy Snow.

Original text:

The city is full of jade, and the light snow is not cold on a sunny day. Moisturize bamboo roots and fat wax bamboo shoots, and warm vegetables help spring dishes.

There are many things to see and travel in front of you, and you don't have to worry about having big breasts and drinking a lot. It is said that the pressure of pears has moved, and it is necessary to whip the horse if you want to see the mud.

Translation:

The whole city is stained with snow, and the white railings are as white as jade. It's not cold when it snows lightly. The roots of bamboo were wetted by snow, which made the bamboo shoots grow. The warmer the weather, the longer the vegetables, the better, which indicates the arrival of spring. There are many things in front of us, but not much to see and play. If there is no sorrow in my heart, I will naturally drink too much. I heard that the pears had started to move, so I whipped my horse and watched it in the spring mud.
