Snowfake Formation
This is an excerpt from the paper...
When the temperature reaches 0C(32F) or lower, water changes from its liquid form into ice (Snowflake). Factors which affect snowflake formation include temperature, air currents, humidity, which affect the size and shape of snowfl'kes, and dirt and pollutants mixed in water which affect the crystal weight and durability in snow. Dirt particles make the snowflakes heavier, which causes cracks and breaks in the crystals and make the snow melt more easily. In general, snowflakes which are six-sided hexagonals in shape are formed in high clouds; needles or flat six-sided snowflake crystals are shaped in clouds at medium height; and a wide assortment of six-sided shapes are formed in lower clouds. Snowflakes growing in warmer conditions grow more slowly, resulting in smoother, less intricate shapes:- 14-10F - sector plates - hexagonals with indentations - 10-3F - dendrites - lacy hexagonal shapes Not all snowflakes are symmetrical in shape: uneven temperatures, the presence of dirt, and other factors can cause dis
