[edit] Frost and hoar frost
This article does not show clearly the difference between frost and hoar frost. In my opinion, frost is the solid deposition of water vapour from saturated air on cold surfaces (the solid equivalent to dew) whereas hoar frost is the deposition of water vapour on ice, snow or frost.

[edit] hoarfrost, frost, hoar frost
'hoar frost' does not show up in my dictionaries, while dictionary.com lists 'hoar' as: 1. hoarfrost; rime. 2. a hoary coating or appearance. so 'hoar frost' (not joined) would be "hoarfrost frost", which is a tautology, i think, so imo all instances of 'hoar frost' in the hoarfrost section should be replaced with either 'hoar' or 'hoarfrost'. anyone agree with the idea?--Ghazer (talk) 20:57, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
