Snowflakes are simply breathtaking. Snow is one of nature’s finest art expressions, and a single snowflake in all its individual glory is always something to behold. Every snowflake is unique and contains as many as 200 intricate crystalline facets that make it stand out from the rest. Snowflakes don’t just come in simple star or hexagon shapes either, since the complexity of ice crystals can produce spectacular variations such as twelve- armed stars, needle-like crystals and dendritic crystals. They really do prove that no two things are exactly alike!
Here are some great things about Snowflakes:
Snowflakes have always been a part of wintery fairytale scenes – delicate, sparkly and beautiful. But did you know that no two snowflakes are the same? That’s right – each one is unique in its own way. They develop their signature 6-pointed shape because of the ratio between ice crystals’ thickness and temperature. Snowflake shapes can also change as they fall according to the type of air around them at various heights. That includes anything from ovals, columns, needles and blending different shapes. With so much diversity up in the air, it’s no wonder that some say “no two snowflakes alike” is just as accurate for snowflake as it is for humans!
