Did black snow fell at the Christmas of 1969 in Sweden?

In the arctic and alpine regions, pink and red snow is not an uncommon sight. The color comes from algae that live among the crystals. However, snow has also been known to fall in tints of blue, green, gray, and black. On Christmas of 1969, black snow fell on a 16,000-square-mile region of Sweden. The snow had apparently accumulated local soot and pollution in its fall. When it was later examined, it was found to contain DDT and PCBs. In 1953, glowing green snow fell near Dana, California (USA). People who tasted the flakes reported a green persimmon flavor, but many who touched the substance came up with rashes and severe itching. The source of the green snow is still a mystery.


Do penguins camouflage with snow?

Yes, penguins have a black and white coloration that helps them blend in with their icy surroundings, providing some level of camouflage against predators like seals and orcas. The black areas on their back help them blend in with the dark ocean water when viewed from below, while the white belly camouflages them from above against the bright surface of the ice and snow.


Can you melt Snow and drink it?

If you are stranded in a blizzard and are trying to stay warm, you should you melt snow and them drink it instead of just eating snow because if you eat un-melted snow it will lower your body temperature. If your core temperature drops too low, you will die. Melting the snow first helps to minimize the drop in temperature.
