Thanks to Orsomanno and the rest of my twitch viewers for tolerating me trying to set this at least 5 times. This one was a learning experience for me.

Normal Sudoku rules apply.

Find all the snowmen! 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).

Each 3x3 box contains exactly 1 full snowman or part of exactly 1 snowman.

The puzzle contains 3 thin grey lines. 1 of the lines is entropic. Every 3 consecutive cells along an entropic line must contain a low digit (123), a middle digit (456) and a high digit (789). 1 of the lines is a German whisper. Consecutive digits along a German whisper line must be at least 5 apart in value. 1 of the lines is a Dutch whisper line. Consecutive digits along a Dutch whisper line must be at least 4 apart in value. The 3 line types must be determined by the solver.

Little killers: Digits outside the box with a diagonally pointing arrow equal the sum of all digits on that diagonal.

X's: Digits separated by an X sum to 10. Not all X's are given.
