OK Snow obsessives. Just how many types of snow (other than GRAUPEL) are there?

[WilfShelf]

I know of, um, graupel. And diamond dust.

And, 'big fat proper six-sided flakes'. Although doubtless there's a proper Sciencey name for those too.

I only know of graupel because of OYBBK

brilliant scrabble word, too, I'll wager

Isn't there some story about how inuits have 15 words for snow of different types? Them being experts and all.

here I like 'covered in frosty sparkling snow'.
