    - i'm going out whether it snows or not (sounds better this way but it's ok the other way too)
    I was explaning something which you strenghtnened (thank you ) and then here you trying to do I don't know what with the examples I gave.
    Thus the meaning of my third example is completely different from yours. Whether it snows or rains... means no matter what the weather is... and whether it snows or not... simply means if it snows or if it doesn't snow...
