Starlink in the Snow? Speed Test and Connection Quality

In this video, I run multiple speed tests while it is snowing. Then I remove the standing snow that is on the satellite dish and test the speed again.

TLDR, snow definitely reduces the quality of the connection and standing snow needs to be brushed off. Even with snow no longer on the dish the speed of the connection is reduced.

I did make a mistake with testing both the latency and the speed at the same time. This did negatively impact the latency when the speed test was running. You can ignore the latency piece and still notice that the internet connection was disconnecting when there was snow on the dish. I have been using this for a week and haven't had dropouts like this until today when it snowed.
