Snowmen are 1 cell wide and 2 cells tall. The base of a snowman is a larger number than its head. Snowmen cannot be orthogonally adjacent to hot digits (7,8,9) otherwise they will melt. Snowmen also cannot contain the hot digits (7,8,9).
Dutch whisper lines: Consecutive digits along an orange Dutch whisper line must be at least 4 apart in value.
Killer Cages: Digits in a cage cannot repeat and sum to the clue given.
X's: Digits separated by an X sum to 10. Not all X's are given.

I confess, I misread the whisper line as a German one so I accidentally got a right answer (didn’t realize until later), so I don’t feel I deserve to say I solved it. I enjoyed it, thank you!
