God, I really hate the snow!!!! SNOW NO!!! I cant stand the coldness and getting all that snow stuff on each time you go out. The boots, gloves, and hats. I hate the color of it to the feel of it. But I do like staying home from school b/c we got snowed in.

I love snow! I wouldn't live where there is no snow. There's snow from about October to as late as June where I'm originally from. There's all kinds of snow types; slush, powder, flurries, packing snow, freezing rain, hail, frost...
Yeah snow is what those people up there said it was. I don't know how to say it in a scientific description or whatever. But I love snow!

I don't like snow either; Snowflakes are extremely beautiful objects and it is amazing that such patterns form randomly. However, that is just how they form. As you probably know, a cloud is just water vapor (steam, if you like), and is composed of very tiny water drops. Now, because the cloud is high in the sky, where the air is thin, these water droplets get cold, below the freezing point of water. It turns out that absolutely pure water won't freeze by itself, even if you get below 32 degrees F, or 0 degrees C (though it will freeze on its own if you get it extremely cold). Instead, the water drops need to stick to something else, like a particle of dust. This is called a "seed". Only then does the water droplet freeze. Once this has happened, other water droplets will stick to the newly made ice-crystal, and also freeze, making it larger. Depending on the conditions, different shaped crystals will grow. In general, we see that snowflakes have a six-sided symmetry. This is because of the shape of a water molecule (two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom stuck together), the angle between the two hydrogen atoms is about 120 degrees. This is also the angle between two sides of a regular hexagon (six-sided figure where all the sides are the same length). So in a sense, water molecules like to "fit together" in six-sided shapes. However, the rest of the snowflake's shape is determined by the "growing" conditions and the shape of the seed. So every snowflake is different, and beautiful.

Snow is transparent ice crystals formed around dust or other small particulates in the atmosphere when water vapor condenses at temperatures below the freezing point. Partly melted crystals usually cling together to form snowflakes, which may in rare cases grow in size up to 7 to 10 cm (3 to 4 in) in diameter.
Structurally, elemental crystals of snow occur in any of various hexagonal forms, depending upon exact atmospheric temperatures during formation. Among these six-sided, basically symmetrical shapes are needle, columnar or stud, platelike, and star-shaped crystalline types. Because of the infinite variability of weather conditions, every snow crystal is unique in its precise configuration, and it is the large number of reflecting surfaces of the crystal that make snow appear white. The longer rays that constitute the arms of the six-rayed stars are generally hollow tubes; they are evidently built up by additions to the edge of an original crystal.
Snowfall measurement is usually stated as depth in centimeters, or other unit, of newly fallen snow; it is also measured in terms of the depth of the layer of water that would result if the snow were melted in place; 25-30 cm (10-12 in) of snow melts to 2.5 cm (1 in) of water.

Snow is the scourge of all humankind over 50.
O.K., I went through the wonderful years of snow days in school. Then I liked the snow in my teenage years with the sleds and ice skating. Then I liked it because my kids loved to play in it.
Now I am over 50. It sucks.

Snow crystals form when water vapor condenses directly into ice, which happens in the clouds. Thus, causing snow.

Snow is a six-sided ice crystal, and there always unique. Snow has several forms depending on temps close to freezing, it's wet and heavy measuring out to 10"=1" of rain, around 26 degrees, dry powder (30"=1") around 18, dry needles (30"=1") around 10 columns (dry) around 4 needles (dry), and around -4 and colder columns (dry)

snow is neccessary for ice fishing . snow is also very important for skiing.snow is an excellent way for the ground water to be replenished in the sping melt. snow it seem's has it's useful purposes. snow is what you make it there's no right or wrong in it It's just there.
