“When you have cold air, the moisture content of the snow decreases so instead of having this East Coast cement, it’s this fluffy, champagne powder that is more typical of what you find in places out West. It is fantastic.” - Atmospheric Sciences Research Center at UAlbany's Scott McKim nypost.com/2025/02/05/lif…
