No, it's not a space.  Here they are: "⛄" "⛇".  The first one is
U+26C4, SNOWMAN WITHOUT SNOW (a.k.a., light snow); the second one
is U+26C7 BLACK SNOWMAN (a.k.a., heavy snow).

BTW, the Turkish and Azerbaijani dotless i is U+0131 LATIN SMALL
LETTER DOTLESS I: "ı".  I had to use the search function in the
Gnome character map to find it.  Search for "dotless" and check
the "Search in character details" box.
