What happens if water vapor is cooled below the freezing point of water?

The most obvious answer is that the vapor will condense rapidly, even possibly before your eyes. By condense, I mean that the vapor will quickly turn into a liquid state.
It will then freeze into a solid state (ice).

Water freezing in bottle when opened?
Water freezing in bottle when opened happens in the case of supercooled water. This water has been cooled below freezing point without being crystallized.
Is there a word for the meaning a liquid below freezing point without solidification?
super-cooled liquid
What happens when air is cooled below its dew point without condensation?
supercooled
What happens to a gas when it get colder?
When a gas cools the distance between the particles shrinks, if a gas is cooled to a temperature below its boiling/Condensing point it condenses into a liquid, if it is cooled bellow its Melting/freezing point it because a solid A common example of this is water which above the temperature 100 is a gas, between 0 and 100 is a liquid and below 0 is a solid.
What occurs when a liquid is cooled to its freezing point?
it freezes
Why does soduim ascetate turn into ice?
Firstly, when sodium acetate (CH3COONa) solidifies, it does not form "ice". It just becomes solid. This happens when the sodium acetate is heated to about 100oC, then cooled below its freezing point. When a foreign substance with the same crystal structure as sodium acetate is introduced, or a nucleation centre is provided, the sodium acetate will warm up to its freezing point and freeze at its (supposed to be) freezing point.
How does flash freezing work?
flash freezing works when water is cooled below its freezing point to form supercooled water. when ice is added ice crystals instantly form around the ice to create a flash freeze
Why do we salt roads?
Salt will reduce the freezing point of water to below 32ºF, thus making it less likely to have slippery roads when temperatures are near the freezing point. This happens because of the colligative property of freezing point depression.
When does sublimation happen?
When unsaturated vapour is cooled down under freezing point
Is bromine pliable?
Bromine is a liquid at room temperature. Cooled below its freezing point, bromine would probably be a brittle crystalline solid much like iodine.
What is sub freezing temperature?
temperature below freezing point of water.
Can water remain liquid below its freezing point?
It is possible to keep water as liquid below its freezing point - see related link.
