Informative Essay On Snowflakes

Have you ever woke up and not wanted to go to school or work? Ever woke up to a large bunch of thick snow falling from the blue skies? Well, here's how snowflakes are made, how they form, and how they stick to the ground. You may be shocked by how they form. Snowflakes are very unique in their own way.
To start with, snowflakes form when cold water evaporates. When water reaches a certain level of the atmosphere and its 32 degrees Fahrenheit, or less, water vapor changes from gas to rock solid, that is, frozen water called ice crystals. Ice crystals form with dust and dirt in the air. These ice crystals are called snowflakes. Fluffy snow falls from the sky once they go up and its 32 degrees Fahrenheit, according to text one and two.
In addition to how they are made, is their shape. Snowflakes or ice crystals
Almost all snowflakes have six short branches for this reason. The molecular building blocks of snowflakes are water molecules. There is only one certain way they will fit together, it almost will always come out as a six cornered shape, even with the tiniest flakes stated in text 1 and two.
Finally... How they stick to the ground. The ground has to be icy cold enough to stick to the ground. The ground must be 32 degrees Fahrenheit. The ground absorbs more heat than the air does so sometimes it may not stick. The hard ground s usually very warm, so its harder to cool down, for snow to stick.
In conclusion, white ice crystals, (snowflakes) need to form in 32 degrees
Fahrenheit. The building blocks for big snowflakes are water molecules . It can only have six sides. It can only stick to the ground in weather of 32 degrees
Fahrenheit or below. Have you ever looked at snowflakes up
