We woke up, on the first day of winter, to everything being covered with Rime ice. Rime ice is white ice that forms when the water droplets in fog freeze to the outer surfaces of objects. It is often seen on trees and is caused by low hanging clouds that cause freezing fog and the temperatures are usually between 17 to 28 degrees. The conditions overnight were perfect for freezing fog and we woke up to rime ice on the trees, bushes, etc. It was very beautiful and cold. It was 22 degrees outside when I took the pictures posted to the right. It was a very cool sight.
I said I would be making an announcement about our Winter trip today so to find out what is going on please go to my other blog, Travels with Ruth, travelswithruth-ruth@blogspot.com, and check it out! Today we are headed to Florida to spend Christmas and New Years with our kids.
Our view
