Rime Frost: An accumulation of granular ice tufts on the windward side of exposed objects that is formed from the supercooled fog and built out directly against the wind.
Northern Wisconsin has been subjected to a circumstance of above normal temperatures and minimal accumulation of snow for the month of January. This has caused over a weeks’ worth of warm nights and foggy mornings the fog freezing and attaching itself to anything in what is called rime frost making the world around you look like it’s been sprinkled with powdered sugar.
You can look out onto herds of geometric ice crystals gathered in a blink of time waiting for sun and warmth to break the influence of reality.
Rime frost creatures can be discovered clinging to any surface frozen in a moment of time while they wait to pass from a solid to gaseous state to roam free again unnoticed.
