The first snow
Today is a magical day. I woke up and looked out of the window. I saw many many little white snow flakes, slowly fall down. All the roofs and roads are covered in white. It is snow(ing)! Winter has come/is here/has arrived/is coming/is arriving.You can just say "white" to express and explain the magic and colour/color, because everybody knows you are talking about snow and how it looks.
We usually say "snow flakes" in full. to avoid pedantic teachers asking do you mean "corn flakes" or any other kind of flake.
snow(ing) is optional you can add it or leave it.

The First Snow
Today is a magical day. I woke up and looked out of the window. I saw lots of little white flies slowly falling down. All roofs and road is covered of white spread. It is snow! Winter has come!It is a bit more natural to put a singular item before plural to make the sentence read better.
"The road and all the roofs were covered in a white spread"
"The dog and the cats are having fun"
"The icecream and the cakes are in the freezer"
It just reads a little bit easier. The order you had written it is not incorrect, though.
Good job. Glad there's no snow where I am. Hate the stuff after a few days.

Если действительно flies, то пишется с буквой "i" а не "y". Правило такой для множественное число существительных, оканчивающиеся на букву игрек: one fly, two flies (одна муха, две мухи). Если глагол to fly (летать/лететь), будет I fly, you fly, he flies. В английском есть метафора "одеяло снега": a (white) blanket of snow.
