Snow, the solid form of water that crystallizes in the atmosphere and, falling to the Earth, covers, permanently or temporarily, about 23 percent of the Earth’s surface.
Snow comprises individual ice crystals that grow while suspended in the atmosphere-usually within clouds-and then fall, accumulating on the ground where they undergo further changes.
A Christmas tree is a decorated tree, usually an evergreen conifer, such as a spruce, pine or fir, or an artificial tree of similar appearance, associated with the celebration of Christmas, originating in Northern Europe.
