Snow
Snow is
water that falls from the sky as frozen crystals called
flakes. When the temperature is
below freezing, snowflakes form around dust
particles in the sky. Because of the large
number of reflective surfaces on
a crystal, snow looks white. Snow has many interesting
properties. One of
the most popular is that no 2 flakes are alike.
Once on the ground, snow accumulates and remains as long as temperatures remain below
freezing. Flakes bond together in a way that makes snow a useful insulator and building
material. This also makes it a good material for many winter games.
