The science of the snowball

Posted:

Once again, Michiana got hit by a winter storm. It dropped over seven inches of snow across the area, making for an interesting couple of days. All of this snow prompted school closures and that meant kids were able to have a SNOW DAY!

Many kids spent the day sledding, skiing, or trying to have snowball fights. However, those kids likely didn't have much luck in making snowballs. Watch the video at the top of this page as Ken Garcia shows why making snowballs or snowmen was a little tough. He also explains what's the best kind of snow for snowballs.
