Hoar Frost...
Radiation frost (also called hoar frost or hoarfrost) refers to the white ice crystals, loosely deposited on the ground or exposed objects, that form on cold clear nights when heat losses into the open skies cause objects to become colder than the surrounding air. A related effect is flood frost which occurs when air cooled by ground-level radiation losses travels downhill to form pockets of very cold air in depressions, valleys, and hollows. Hoar frost can form in these areas even when the air temperature a few feet above ground is well above freezing. Nonetheless the frost itself will be at or below the freezing temperature of water.My trip to Sisters' Saturday, was a trip into magic land...
everything was covered in frost,
all the way to the shop I was greeted with Nature's spectacle
the entire trip...
yes, there is beauty in winter in Iowa...
you just have to see the true meaning of it!
