That Used to Be Boiling Water

If you throw cold water into the air on an extremely cold day, it won’t necessarily freeze. But toss boiling water into the air in sub-zero temperatures, with air temps less than -14° Fahrenheit/-26° Celsius to be exact, and you’re in for quite an entertaining (though a bit dangerous) surprise. The water technically doesn’t convert to snow, but it does become a cloud of vapor that looks quite a bit like snow.

Just remember to carefully mind where and how you toss the boiling water. You definitely don’t want to throw it into wind blowing in your direction.
