It’s not officially winter yet (at least according to the calendar), but it’s almost time for the seasonal switch and all the snow that comes along with it.
Snow is kind of like Christmas. The year wouldn’t be complete without it! That isn’t to say, though, that we know everything there is to know about snow. For instance, we think of snowflakes as tiny little specks. But did you know that in 1887 there was a snowflake in Montana that measured 15 inches across and 8 inches thick, according to the Guinness Book of World Records? That’s a GIANT snowflake!
Here’s another interesting snow fact: Snow is not white. It’s colorless! So why does it look white? According to Minerals.net, “Snow is colorless, but the reflections of its crystal sides cause it to look white.”
