Has scattered snow (4)
I believe the answer is:
owns
'has' is the definition.
('own' can be a synonym of 'have')
'scattered snow' is the wordplay.
'scattered' indicates an anagram.
'snow' is an anagram of 'OWNS'.
(Other definitions for owns that I've seen before include "Has possession of by right" , "uses" , "Possesses" , "Confesses" , "Belongs to" .)
