How does orange snow form in Europe
4hw.com.cn: we often use the word "Snow White" to describe white, but you have seen and heard of "snow orange". Recently, there has been an orange blizzard in Europe. Many ski resorts have seen this strange scene, so how does orange snow form? Let's have a look.
Some tourists described this scene as "the end of the world" and "landing on Mars". Scientists believe that the orange snow is a mixture of dust and pollen.
According to Hong Kong's dongwang.com, some tourists recently came to Sochi ski resort, Russia, which hosted the Winter Olympic Games in 2014. They photographed the snow capped mountain covered in orange, saying that the snow capped hillside had become a crescent shaped dune. Others described it as facing Mars and the end of the world. Similar photos were shared in Bulgaria, Ukraine and Romania.
A hydrometeorologist arrived in Sochi on Saturday (24) for inspection, believing that the wind brought sand from the Sahara desert, and then it rained like snow. They expect the snow to return to normal in a few days.
Reported that Siberia in 2007 also appeared orange snow anomalies, when scientists attributed to a nearby sandstorm.
