Default cover

Dear teachers,

I know I can say 'to cover something with something'. Then I come across a sentence:
The city was covered in a thick blanket of snow.

Could you please explain if there is any difference between "to cover something with something" and "to cover something in something'?

Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you in advance.

Jiang
