Snow

Studies link Snow with 1 measure, most often distal radius fracture (1 study).

Snow has been studied in 2 papers since 2016: 2 observational studies in people; 1 in the past year. The newest paper, Jul 6, 2026: “Forecasting fractures: Weather-associated variability in hip fracture and isolated distal radius fracture incidence”.
