Snow is made up of trillions of tiny ice crystals to make snowflakes, with not one alike. Here's how they form.

Ultimately, a snowflake's shape relies on two factors: temperature and humidity. The temperature of the cloud determines the shape of the ice crystals. Temperature influences the rate at which a ...

how this affects ice crystal growth dynamics, and the resulting remarkable temperature dependence observed in snow crystal formation.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Snowflakes form when a cold water droplet freezes onto particulates (like dust or pollen) in the atmosphere, creating an ice crystal. As the ice crystal falls through the ...

Natural snow starts as a tiny ice crystal on an ice nucleus in a cloud. As the crystal falls through the air, it slowly grows into the classic six-sided snowflake. By comparison, human-made snow ...
