I re-turfed a section of my lawn about that time last year and everything has been fine. I know we didn't have this sort of prolonged cold weather last year but if the grass was doing well before this cold snap then there is no reason for there to be a problem .

Try not to walk on it, it should be OK.

Hello Slotty,
Welcome to GOY.
Snow has ammonia in it, good for greening up grass. If it gets covered in snow leave it, if you have little ones do not let them make a snowman on it.
I have just sown grass seed which is frosted, I am confident it will survive.
Just leave it and you should be alright.
