It seems to be Blizzard Beach week around here.
At real ski slopes, they use nozzles to spray water in a super-fine mist into the sub-freezing temperatures, and the result is artificial snow (technically ice, but the particles are so small it's almost the same as snow).
Blizzard Beach is themed as a freak snowstorm in Florida, turned into a ski resort, but now the sun is back and everything is melting (hence the flume rides with water). There are lots of authentic touches, but one of my favorites is the snowblower. There are a couple in the teen area Ski Patrol. Obviously there's no snow here, but the fine mist of water is welcome anyway in the summer heat.
