Snow . . .


. . . a major inconvenience for populations of common latitude to ours . . .


(from http://nsidc.org/cryosphere/snow/index.html)
". . . Snow cover is a part of the cryosphere, which traces its origins to the Greek word kryos for frost. Snow is precipitation in the form of ice crystals. It originates in clouds when temperatures are below the freezing point (0 degrees Celsius, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit), when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses directly into ice without going through the liquid stage. Once an ice crystal has formed, it absorbs and freezes additional water vapor from the surrounding air, growing into a snow crystal or snow pellet, which then falls to Earth. . . "


. . .  nor a delicacy when appearing in alternative colors . . .
