Self Rolling Snow Balls

This is insanely neat.

Snow stories: rare sell rolling snow balls found in UK

This is an article from The Telegraph. Apparently on some plains in the UK, if the wind conditions are right, there is just enough ice, and the snow is perfectly moist, giant snowballs will self form and roll around the fields. There are two pictures at the top of the article that I find fascinating. They are not really snowballs, but rather snow cylinders.

We've been getting plenty of snow in Rochester, but no self-rolling snowballs. That would be something to write home about!
