\<a  
href=“[http://www.its.caltech.edu/~atomic/snowcrystals/](http://www.its.caltech.edu/~atomic/snowcrystals/)”\>Snow Crystals\</a\> is a great site, if you have any real interest in the physics of snow flakes. Nice pictures, too. Not to thick for the average SDMB’r I don’t think, but erudite enough for even the scientists among us. Natural, and artifical snow flakes, from historic, and current scientific studies.

Thanks anyway, Trisk, but I got enough of the real thing outside on my deck!
