It holds water in winter (4)

I believe the answer is:

snow

(Other definitions for snow that I've seen before include "Ice flakes" , "that may arrive around Christmas time" , "Downfall of white" , "Flakes overhead" , "'See amid the winter's ... (Christmas carol)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
