Snowflakes form when water vapor in the air directly transforms into ice through a process called deposition, which occurs at temperatures below freezing. During this process, the vapor condenses onto particles of atmospheric dust, giving rise to ice crystals that take on different shapes depending on environmental conditions. The final shape of a snowflake is influenced by its journey through the clouds, with variations in temperature and humidity determining its growth. Each snowflake is unique, as it follows a different path under constantly changing conditions. 🌨
