Has it snowed recently in Xi 'an?

According to the local weather forecast in Xi 'an, as of June, 2023, 65438+1October, 3 1, there was no snow in Xi 'an.

Snow is solid water, which falls from the mixed clouds to the ground in the form of snowflakes. Water vapor in the atmosphere condenses directly or water droplets condense directly, which is snow. It can also be said that it snows when the temperature in the cloud is too low and small water droplets form ice crystals and fall to the ground or snow. Ice absorbs heat when it melts, so the ground temperature will be lower than when it snows.

The condition of snow is that the atmosphere needs to contain cold ice crystal nuclei and sufficient water vapor. Below 3.0℃ (freezing point), if the cold air is quite strong and carries moisture, it can snow at the temperature of 1℃ to 10℃.
