How Do Snowflakes 'Get' Their SHAPE?

Snowflakes come in a seemingly endless variety of shapes and sizes. Two factors play key roles in determining the shape of a snowflake: temperature and humidity.
Kenneth Libbrecht, Professor of Physics at the California Institute of Technology, made some extensive observations regarding snowflakes’ shapes in different atmospheric conditions. He observed that snowflakes formed below -22 degrees Celsius (-7.6 degrees Fahrenheit) have comparatively simpler shapes than those formed in warmer temperatures.
The other crucial factor is humidity. It has been seen that the most intricate patterns in snowflakes are formed when there is ample humidity in the air. On the contrary, however, drier air results in snowflakes with simpler designs.

I am also almost certain I made similiar comment several months/years ago here, but I am still statistically right :v

[@ScienceABCII]

tell me more

[@Hecarim420]

One day you gonna blow up little 2. Very 🆒much content overall💚 👀ツ

Almost all really small channels I subscribed make living from UA-cam. I really like channels that don't waste time, but people are more into hype things (myself even more, but it's rather "under control"), but hype is ALWAYS declining & you gonna get less satisfaction. Just saying
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you for encouraging words and delighted that you find our videos useful.

@@ScienceABCII I am here (in comments) to make You(r team) feel better. I am advanced newbie of science overall & I can easily say (I saw/keep seeing) that in those few minute format you really are HIGH IQUALITY with interesting ''monday questions''
==>
Also I just try to predict an answer (I am doing it with all science content & I am afraid that actually I am not stupid :v)and those videos are propably great exercise even ''for morons''. You don't need to reply, I just gathered few facts here. GL & HF =]
