Industrial snow occurs near sources of heat, moisture and atmospheric particulate matter. It usually occurs at nighttime, in a combination of freezing temperatures, stagnant low stratus cloud or fog, and a temperature inversion. It falls from a low altitude as fine spikes of ice, having not had time to grow to the more usual shaped snowflake.
It has been observed in Switzerland, Germany, Northern Italy , Hungary, in Canada , and Texas.
