Frost is a solid deposition of water vapor from saturated air. It is formed
when solid surfaces are cooled to below the dew point of the adjacent air.
Frost crystals' size differ depending on time and water vapor available.
Frost is also usually translucent in appearance. There are many types of
frost, such as radiation and window frost. Frost causes economic damage
when it destroys plants or hanging fruits. It can also damage road surfaced
through a process known as frost heaving.
Formation If a solid surface is chilled below the dew point of the
surrounding air and the surface itself is colder than freezing, frost will
form on the surface. Frost consists of spicules of ice which grow out from
the solid surface. The size of the crystals depends on time, temperature,
and the amount of water vapor available.
In general, for frost to form the deposition surface must be colder than
the surrounding air. For instance frost may
