Answer
As the humid air temperature drops below 0 degrees Celsius, its moisture condenses.
Moisture is said to be in the form of small frost particles or leaves.
These small icebergs are made up of large ice particles.
It falls on the earth's surface in the form of rain.
It's called a snowstorm.
Snowfall occurs during the winter in the mountainous areas of the Himalayas in northern India.
Snowfall cools the climate of the region.
Cold winds from that region blow the cold wave back to the surrounding or distant region.
When heavy snowfall occurs in winter on the Himalayas in India, the cold wave turns again in Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Gujarat.
