any modification you make to weather would be global.
That is true; one would also have snow and ice at the Equator. Perhaps there is a way around this. In American football games, snow will appear in Winter, and only in outside stadiums in the North.
Still, with CMDR one should be able to do this but with limits. JSGME can be used with CMDR, and one would have to enable ice and snow on Winter patrols in the North Atlantic.
A couple of years ago, there was some interest in this and some people did develop ships with ice. One of the problems was that the ice would not melt when submerged, so the reality gurus were upset.
