Some ice seen this morning, the coldest we’ve yet experienced at our home in the Fort Valley… 4° F when we got up this morning, with windchill around -15° F.

Frost nucleated on a “petal” from a tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera):

Frost on grass (note the different habit of the ice crystals here):

Frost on some netting:

Frost on some plant stems near a little creek on our land:

Ice accumulated on leaves and sticks in the creek:

Lastly, I went outside and blew some bubbles with a bubble wand, then caught them and watched them freeze into delicate little bags of ice:


A nice cold day. I love it!
