- Snow is a form of precipitation like rain and sleet.
- To snow the temperature must be below 0 degrees celsius.
- The size of a snowflake depends on how many ice crystals connect together.
- Each snowflake is made up of about 200 ice crystals.
- Snowflakes have six sides.
- There is no scientific proof that no two snowflakes aren’t exactly alike.
- On average snowflakes fall from the sky at 3-4 miles per hour.
- Snow is not actually white but clear. Snow looks white because of the way the light reflects off of the ice crystals.
- The largest snowman was 122 feet tall. It was built-in Maine in 2008.
- Enjoy the snow! It usually melts away pretty quickly here on the coast. Get out and build a snowman! Have Fun!
