The Sprouts' Nana called us yesterday and left a message for us about a cool science experiement she heard about on the news. Apparently, in -30 degree Celsius weather, if you throw boiling water in the air it will crystallize and fall as snow and ice particles. This morning FK and I went outside to test this theory. It was -34 degrees Celsius, so that part of the experiment was in place. I filled a cup with boiling water, gave the cup to FK who proceeded to throw the water in the air. Unfortunately, she couldn't throw the water up high enough for the experiment to work. I traded places with her, filled the cup with boiling water, and threw the water into the cold air. It worked! A pretty cool experiment to do on a cold Saturday morning in January. Thanks, Nana, for the tip!
