China has been experiencing ice rain three times since the beginning of the year. The widespread ice rain, snow and freezing weather affected the traffic, but also had an interesting impact on the surrounding environment, turning plants and trees into amazing ice sculptures. Here are a few of these fantastic vegetation.
When I first saw the pictures, I thought it was a frozen tsunami. Well, it’s not, I kinda overdid it. The pictures you are about to see are from a glacier in Antarctica. The annual temperature there is below 0 Celsius everytime. Antarctica is by far the coldest continent and some places reach -90c. The blue ice in the picture occurs when snow that falls on a glacier is compressed. The air bubbles left inside are squeezed out, leaving the ice clear and blue.
