How can there be frost when the temperature is above freezing?
Because the temperature is often a few degrees colder right at the surface. This is because cold air sinks, and if it is not mixed (as under calm conditions) the temperature will be colder at the surface than it is 2 meters above ground, where temperature is officially measured.
Yes, frostbite can go away, but the extent of recovery depends on the severity of the injury. Mild frostbite may heal completely with proper treatment, which includes rewarming and care for the affected areas. Severe cases, however, can lead to long-term complications, such as tissue damage or amputation. Prompt medical attention is essential to minimize damage and promote healing.
How longdoes it take to get frostbite at 30 degrees?
Roughly 9 minutes to exposed skin, assuming there is strong wind.
Can you get blisters from frostbite?
YES. You can get frostbite from cold winter weather, and dry ice is much colder than even a pretty brutal winter (but fun fact: it is warmer than the coldest temperature ever recorded on planet Earth by about 11 degrees C). Always handle dry ice with insulated gloves.

What is the highest temperatrue at witch you can contract frostbite?
"When people are in cold weather, typically 5 degrees F (-15 C) and below, the skin's blood vessels narrow." This means less oxygen to the body part, which can lead to cell death and frostbite. (from related link)
How is a frostbite a consequence of the body's attempt to maintain its core temperature?
Since blood heats the skin, and in the cold the body wants to keep the core warm, it reduces circulation to the extremities which can cause frostbite.
What are the symptoms of frostbite?
Frostbite is classified by degree of injury (first, second, third, or fourth), or simply divided into two types, superficial (corresponding to first- or second-degree injury) and deep (corresponding to third- or fourth-degree injury). Most frostbite injuries affect the feet or hands. The remaining 10% of cases typically involve the ears, nose, cheeks, or penis. Once frostbite sets in, the affected part begins to feel cold and, usually, numb; this is followed by a feeling of clumsiness. The skin turns white or yellowish. Many patients experience severe pain in the affected part during rewarming treatment and an intense throbbing pain that arises two or three days later and can last days or weeks. As the skin begins to thaw during treatment, edema (excess tissue fluid) often accumulates, causing swelling. In second- and higher-degree frostbite, blisters appear. Third-degree cases produce deep, blood-filled blisters and, during the second week, a hard black eschar (scab). Fourth-degree frostbite penetrates below the skin to the muscles, tendons, nerves, and bones. In severe cases of frostbite the dead tissue can mummify and drop off. Infection is also a possibility.

How is frostbite treated in alternative medicine?

it is measured like a burn; first, second, and third degree. Some also measure it by superficial and deep.
Is it bad to eat chicken with frostbite?
Also known as freezer burn, this is caused by moisture loss from the damaged tissues of the frozen food.
The answer to your question depends on your definition of "bad." Freezer-burnt food is typically dry and tough, and may carry slight off flavors; however, it is not likely to be dangerous. If you are concerned about bacterial contamination, simply make sure that it is thoroughly cooked to an internal temperature of 165F (which you should be doing with poultry anyway).
