Hoar Frost

Hoarfrost | meteorology | Britannica.com

https://www.britannica.com/science/hoarfrost

“Hoarfrost, deposit of ice crystals on objects exposed to the free air, such as grass blades, tree branches, or leaves. It is formed by direct condensation of water vapour to ice at temperatures below freezing and occurs when air is brought to its frost point by cooling.”

In other words, it has to be (Bad Word) COLD!

Or as I like to say…the beauty of hoarfrost is God’s way of apologizing for making your nose hairs freeze.

It also makes us especially glad, that one week later and the snow is melting and the sun is shinning!

We are grateful for Spring!
