Default Driving in a Blizzard

If driving in a Blizzard and the snow collects on the bonnet/blocking intercooler will the lack of air cause overheating problems?
Or will the melting snow be enough as it drips into the intercooler scoop to keep the temps ok.

Intercooler only "working" when you're on boost. If its snowing/icy I doubt you're likely to use that sort of power so nothing to worry about.

I knew that really.
Good to get a second opinion.
