The steam wouldn't be the same color, since the steam can't pick up particles as heavy as dyes. Idk, my idea

Don't eat the yellow snow.
therobotwolf
Except you know where the yellow snow has been, you don't know where the white snow has been. (Sorry, just a joke my family does.)

BananaForScaIe
As a Canadian, can confirm.
Kkatgotyourtongue
Well, and I'm just spit balling here, but I think the snow might be colored as well.
CanUweldOil
The boil might neutralize the color but I could be wrong
killerswan
If it's a liquid food coloring, it might raise or lower the boiling points, too!
killerswan
Also pure (e.g., de-ionized) water behaves differently than tap water, and I'm not Alaskan or a chemist, so YMMV!

I live in Minnesota, don't throw it over your head like this fool. Some of the water can still fall boiling hot. A lot of people get burns.
gnorr
No need to use boiling water, though. Just hot water from the sink will do the trick as well, and it won't hurt that much.

A lot of people get burnt in Minnesota? Is that a tradition to toss boiling water and get burns?

It stays water. Warmer water freezes faster
tristan8251
This would be great for television. Make a device that shoots water from a tube in the actors wrist area. Would look cool
RosieIsla
So essentially that Elsa wrist shooter toy? You could just fill the canister with water.
RosieIsla
But it'd need to be pretty insulated for that. I'm not sure what the canister is made of, but I bet it won't stop the water from freezing.

Try it. Just throw the water away from yourself and other people and everything will be ok even if it does not work.

Last year a bunch of news people did indeed burn themselves. Sometimes live!
Jezebella
You really should wait until it's negative 40 and then you don't get the water to a rolling boil, just a slight boil.
junebug2
One time my ex thought it would be fun to put boiling water in a spray bottle and do this but sprayed me right in the eyeball on accident
killerswan
Eeeek!
atomicpotato124
I did this in Florida where it was 78 degrees, experienced minor setbacks

The key is the separation of the water. A large body of water would take a while to cool. Little drops of water cool almost instantly.

I remember there being a PSA on the news last year when dozens of people were burning themselves trying to do this.
areyouhavingastroke
Which is stupid.. It would still be really cool in Normal Reality Land to do it with just room temperature water!
drakeirving
It doesn't work as well with room temperature water. Boiling water has more energy and so will vaporize easier once spread into droplets.

Boiling water freezes faster than normal temp water.
HiddenSanity
With a unproven exception, it freezes faster until it gets to normal temp wherein it slows down to normal, so it doesn't get frozen faster.
root1657
No, no it doesn't. It looses heat faster, but has farther to go...
woopwooppulloverdatasstoofat
It freezes faster.
halfswing
I remember being taught in grade 6-ish it did because molecules are already rapidly moving less energy to get them to vibrating/solid state
FckyourselfSarah
No, it's because heat transfers based on the difference between temperatures. Bigger diff, faster speed.

Fahrenheit makes no goddamned sense. Water is solid at 0, gas at 100; Celsius couldn't be simpler. A gram is one ml of water. Water water...
Hellstorm99
Flyndaran
0 F is super cold; 100 F is super hot. Human temperature scale.
SomeDetroitGuy
Celsius is approximately zero at freezing and approximately 100 at boiling. Fir most human experienced temperature, F ranges from 0-100.
blairmichod
It's from before temperature could be controlled absolutely and thus 0°F was defined as the temp of an equal mixture of ice and salt...
blairmichod
Which creates a "frigorific mixture" that is always the same temperature if all components are present in excess.
blairmichod
Celsius IS a better system, but Fahrenheit has its properties for legitimate albeit historical reasons.
whatsisname
"Water is solid at 0, gas at 100;". That depends on pressure. It only makes no sense because you don't know what's going on.
Pullout69
I'd guess that it's atmospheric pressure at sea level
starvingpoet
There are 32 degrees of enlightenment in freemasonry and thus 32 is the temperature at which water freezes. Duh.
Flyndaran
Pre precise temperature readings. How much is the coldest we can get water before it freezes using salts? 0 F. Human temp shall be 100. 1/2
Flyndaran
What I heard at least.
Flyndaran
Either the guy was running a light fever or reading error made the scale a little off.
EdwardStarsmith
He was actually measuring the temp of his wife. If I remember correctly he was measuring his most favorite part of his wife.
Flyndaran
0 C is really cold. 100 C is dead. One degree is enormous. I prefer the size of the F because it small enough to work with.
Muad
100 C is fine for a sauna
Pullout69
Yeah if you wanna cook a pizza in it.
howitzer1c
Pizza ovens are more like 300 degrees. 100 is fine for sauna, although, I personally prefer slightly lower, something like 80-90 degrees.
verovex
You would die.
Muad
Only if there's a heck of a lot of steam in there. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/aug/08/sauna-championship-russian-dead
howitzer1c
Only if you pass out or something and nobody notices and you stay there for hours. And then you die of dehydration.

happyfaic72
Shame, because that's not how Kelvin works. One does not say "degrees Kelvin," it's just "___ Kelvin."
DavidBrooker
Confusing note: symbols of units named after people are capitalized, like K, but the full name isn't, to avoid confusion with the person.
DavidBrooker
eg: kelvin is a unit of temperature, Kelvin was a Scottish/Irish physicist.

Sublimation is when a solid turns directly into a gas, evaporation is when a liquid turns into a gas. Just FYI. Good joke though.

It freezes into ice crystals, then sublimates into a gas from there. So... SUBLIME INDEED!
