How many photos of the frost did you take this morning? The event was technically a "hoar frost." Here's one explanation: 

"Under clear frosty nights in winter soft ice crystals might form on vegetation or any object that has been chilled below freezing point by radiation cooling. This deposit of ice crystals is known as hoar frost and may sometimes be so thick that it might look like snow."

As you probably found out, the beauty doesn't last long, especially when the sun comes out.

The Icon took lots of photos and you will find them in the attachment below.

And, several Icon viewers also sent us photos. We will continue to post photos as viewers send them. We suggest sending only a few at a time, resolution 72 is preferred. Send to: [email protected].
