What is hoarfrost?

On frosty winter nights, when the air temperature falls below the freezing point of water (0 ° C), droplets of water evaporating from the soil surface, grass and trees or snow cover turn into tiny, mostly needle-shaped ice crystals, and the ground is enveloped in silvery - a shining coverlet, which lies on the bushes, on the branches of trees, and on the electric wires. Sometimes the branches are so thickly covered with frost crystals that they break off under their weight.

Wow! I've missed the frost... Do I really have to wait an entire year till I get to experience it again? Fuck!

i have never witnessed a snow fall, it doesn't snow where i live
and such images always bring a good vibe
i really cant wait till i see this for real

For people who see this phenomenon constantly, it is no longer something special, unfortunately. But it looks beautiful! :)

Из всех вариантов зимних художеств - этот мой самый любимый 🤗❄️

Я тоже люблю иней :)

Это выглядит очень красиво, я бы даже сказала сказочно! Но несмотря на красоту, я рада, что сейчас весна)))) Просто у нас уже неделю стоит тепло и я не могу нарадоваться)

А у нас тепло, все растаяло и грязь. Раннюю весну я не люблю.
