The cold weather phenomenon characterized by frost is known as frost itself or, more technically, radiation frost. Frost forms when temperatures drop below the freezing point of water (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit), causing moisture in the air to condense and freeze on surfaces such as leaves, grass, and vehicles. It appears as a white or crystalline coating, often creating a beautiful yet potentially damaging effect on plants. Frost can harm sensitive crops and vegetation, leading farmers to take protective measures during colder months. Early mornings after a frost can reveal a stunning landscape transformed by this icy phenomenon.
