Oh honey, that phrase is just a sassy way of saying it's so darn cold that the air is too dry for any snowflakes to form. Basically, it's like saying "I'm freezing my butt off, but at least I won't have to shovel any snow." So, next time someone drops that line on you, just give them a knowing nod and tell them to bundle up!

Why is snow not warm?

snow is cold because its made of COLD WATER. Snow happens when its freezing outside, and so is in the clouds. Then, the water inside of the clouds freezes, but not too much (it would be a hail storm then) and when its time to rain, instead of raining, its snowing. and that's why snow isn't warm.


Is snow really melted by the salt you put on the roads in the winter?

Yes! Unless it is too cold for the salt to work.


Can snow dehidrate you if you eat too much?

no, snow is water. However, it is not recommended to eat snow ( in a survival situation) because it can "burn" the inside of your mouth from being too cold and above all, it can lower your body temperature thus speeding and catalyzing hypothermia. Eating hand fulls every now and then to help stave off dehydration is fine, just dont over do it.


When the snow is on the ground?

The snow will stick to the ground if the ground is cold enough to keep the snow frozen. If the ground is too warm, it will melt the snow right as the snow hits the ground. The air temperature isn't always the same as ground temperature, keep in mind, because a solid, such as rock and dirt, holds heat longer than air. another answer:snow falls because the air in the cloud is too cold and form ice crystals,they then get too heavy and fall.falling snow gets enlarged while fallling but it also breaks into parts.when snow hits the ground it builds up and creates a mound of snow.when it gets hot the snow melts and evaporates and snows or rains somewhere else in the world


Is snow produced when a warm front and cold front collide?

No. Snow forms when air that is moist enough rises to an altitude where the temperature is below freezing. Ice crystals that we call snowflakes then form. If it is cold enough near the ground these snowflakes will reach the ground as snow. If it is too warm the snowflakes will melt and become rain.

Why snowballs cannot be made in very cold weather?

In very cold weather, the snow is usually too dry and powdery to stick together to form a snowball. The lack of moisture in the snow makes it difficult to pack and shape into a solid mass. Additionally, extremely cold temperatures can prevent the snow from compacting easily, further hindering the ability to create a snowball.
