How long would it take for a snowstorm to fill up your mouth with 200ml of water?

If you had stood outside looking up with your mouth open in the UK's worst snowstorm in the past 10 years, how long would it taken for the snow to fill your mouth with 200ml of water?

Would it have been more energy efficient to keep yourself warm all that time or to transport that 200ml of water to a tap in the area that the snowstorm happened?
