Climate change has begun to show its teeth in our regions as well - the weather has changed to such an extent that we quickly exchange winter for autumn or summer for spring.

Times have changed and we may even forget about the white blanket, which is not what it seemed to be. She will shock you when you get to know her a little better.
Like children we hunted snowflakes, because we wanted to know how they are to see, but we don't have it succeed, because they are steps, before we studied their form. We thought it was white snow, that you can do everything we catch snowflakes with our tongue and is snow legal in all countries.
yes, we might disappoint you, a time is to look at the snow with another point of view. These are pserious facts about snow, which for sure no you know.

The snowflake has six sides.
Finding that they have snowflakes six pages, is right science. Water molecules, from which they are made snowflakes, can only combine to create a six-sided ice crystal. So all those snowflakes, which you see in trade, and they have Friday or more pages, they violate the laws of nature.
Some snowflakes are the same shape.
