Safe to shoot non-weathersealed lens during snowfall?


Hi,

My dslr is weathersealed but my lens is NOT weathersealed.

Outside, there are heavy winds and lots of snow, so there's snow hovering around in all directions. Can I safely shoot my setup outside (ground level, just environment portraits) with no damage to the lens and body? I'm not sure if I'm being overly cautious.

How about if there was minimal wind but just some snow falling? I would rather ask for input rather than assume.

For reference:
dslr: Nikon D750
lens: Zeiss 28mm f/2

Thank you!
