If people are telling you for certain that its something other than a snow, then i suggest you are very wary of anything they say advice wise!

A blizzard, avalanche, whiteout, and another I can't remeber are all variations of the snow theme, however, they are all more expensive than your standard snow, so if it was a shop, he was prob angling for more money.
A lot of shops rarely ever know exactly what they are selling, mostly down to bad information they were given from the breeder. Any of the above would be obvious as their parentage is different.
