Condensation is the accumulation of water droplets due to differences in temperature (cold surface interacting with humid air). I think this is an example of condensation because water has accumulated on the window in response to warm air inside and cold outside (in addition to subpar single pane windows. 

Snow Accumulation/ Snow

On this rare occasion, it was snowing outside and thus, accumulating. It is hard to see because it is very lightly snowing.  Snow is precipitation that is in a crystallized structure forming around a nucleus (dust). Snow accumulation results from a continuous input of snow results in an increased depth of snow. This picture was taken only moments before a freezing rain event.
