Vanilla DFBHD has no snow assets. A few good mods do, but using mods in DFBHD is a slog for a newb, and it'll drain your stamina getting into them these days.

I can give you these tips: with the right lighting, dim and bluish, some concrete tiles look snowy. Otherwise, you have to use the one tile with double runway stripes (tile 40 in set trntile8) and arrange them on top of each other to cover all the gaps between the stripes. I just tested it and it took 912 tiles to cover a 225m square. On my crate, weird dark lines appear all over the tiles when viewed from a distance. It looks bad.

The maximum number of tiles you can use in the MEd is 6144, then subtract the total number of other items you have in your map.

If you know what you're doing in your preferred image manipulation app, you could try making you own new mission specific tile sets.

I wish you the best of luck, whatever you decide, bud!
