There's a lot more to see than you might think! Quoting: IwantToBelieve76 Simple Prisms A hexagonal prism is the most basic snow crystal geometry (see the Snowflake Primer). Depending on how fast the different facets grow, snow crystal prisms can appear as thin hexagonal plates, slender hexagonal columns (shaped a lot like wooden pencils), or anything in between. Simple prisms are usually so small they can barely be seen with the naked eye. :snowflake2: Stellar Plates These common snowflakes are thin, plate-like crystals with six broad arms that form a star-like shape. Their faces are often decorated with amazingly elaborate and symmetrical markings. :snowflake1: Read more and have a look: [link to www.its.caltech.edu] A hot one! |

Texan Buckeye User ID: 1533753 United States 12/19/2012 11:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm jealous!! All we're going to get today is New Mexico's dust and 60mph winds. I want some snow, too! When we were little, in Ohio, we used to catch snowflakes on our mittens to look at them. I bought a book last year for my daughter, the weathertard, with photos of all different types of snowflakes. It told about the process to photograph them. It's really interesting, sorry I don't remember the name. |

They really are pretty though, as kids we used to study them and always loved the frost patterns on the windows. Mother Nature is sure an incredible artist.
