Are there three snowflakes in the green part of the shield? They would refer to the international bobsleigh and sledge track located in Sigulda (and former training center of Soviet Union, if I remember correctly).

No, they are daisy flowers. The arms of Sigulda were created in the 1930ies, the bobsleigh track in the 1980ies (IIRC).
