Antarctica gets very little snow which makes me wonder what CNN's

Have a look at any of the cameras on the ice during a storm.

That's windblown ice. Antarctica's airmass is very dry, very little
snowfall. Most of the place has had about 20 centimeters of snow over
the past 50 years.
Snow or ice can be blinding no matter the direction.
