Hoar Frost





hoarfrost n
(Earth Sciences / Physical Geography) a deposit of needle-like ice crystals formed on the ground by direct condensation at temperatures below freezing point. Also called white frost.

OK. So I haven't experienced winter in 10 years, BUT am thoroughly enjoying everything God is sending my way (so much for global warming!!). Today we woke up to a deep hoarfrost covering everything! It was so thick that it may look similar to the ice, but it's much more delicate and quickly melted away in the sun. I have realized how much I've missed having seasons. It really allows you to revel in God's handiwork much more often!
