The Polar Blast we are experiencing here in New Zealand is being referred to as a '50 year event', and is causing havoc throughout the country. Unable to go anywhere today - so decided to make use of the snow by taking these apples and my camera outside. The lemons had fallen off the tree nearby.
This was taken after a heavy fall of what turned out not to be snow but Graupel, which forms when supercooled droplets of water freeze on falling snowflakes, forming 2–5 mm balls.
Something new learned today - the weatherman on TV told us about this Graupel :) All I know is, it it bitterly bitterly cold out there!
Taken with Canon 450D.
Hope this is a cooling shot for those of you in hot climes:) Comments very welcome.
