Transcript of “Silver Thaw”
I’ve talked about terms for hot weather, but here’s one that I really like that involves cold weather that just makes me feel better saying it.
It’s silver thaw.
Silver thaw, particularly in Oregon and Washington state, refers to freezing rain that coats everything with ice.
Isn’t that beautiful?
Silver thaw.
Oh, that really is.
I’ve seen those ice storms in Missouri where literally everything looks like a tree that’s been perfectly decorated with tensile.
Yes, yes.
And that’s what we called them back east, an ice storm.
But I thought it was interesting that in the Pacific Northwest it’s called silver thaw.
Silver thaw.
Gorgeous.
