  • Cold Weather Science Experiments

    Yeah, so my roomate and I were kinda bored and we heard a rumor that when its really cold outside, if you take boiling water and throw it outside it turns into snow. It works. I have video to prove it, but its like 8,000kb in it. Pretty cool. BTW, I'm not responsible if someone tries this and scalds themselves That would be your fault for being stupid.

    I never thought I'd see the day boiling water turned to snow in an instant. Wow, the wonders of science. Damn the cold.

        I learnt this the hard way. I was shovelling snow in my driveway, and there was hard ice underneath the powdery snow, which was not easy to shovel at all. Salt also did not seem to be working very well. So I decided to pour hot water on the ice in hopes of melting it. Did that happen? No. The water instantly froze and turned into ice, so now I had more ice to shovel.
