Calgary Met Report Question

Hi Guys

Operated into CYYC a few days ago and upon receipt of the SA via ACARS came across something in the remarks section, which despite checking the 'Remarks' section of the Jepps, didn't appear to be covered.

The 'actual' read as follows:

CYYC 141313Z 12003KT 5/8SM -SN BKN007 OVC019 M04/ RMK SN4SC2SC2 RVR RWY34 6000FT.

Now I'm fine with everything except the SN4 bit. The remarks section in the Jepp Met section refers to all the different cloud types and coverage e.g SC2 (Strato Cu 2/8th cover) but nowhere could I see the 'SN' info. Is it to do with snow (seems obvious) and did I overlook it in the book??

Still fairly new to Canadian ops so looking to improve my knowledge all the time.

Thanks in advance for any info
