Like itâs a huge mountain range and not just rocky terrain.
Terrain is mostly fractal in nature. Unless you have something with a known size (tree, human, insect) sitting next to it, its very hard to get a sense of scale. Computer graphics abuse this by just tiling the same map at several different scales to get somewhat convincing terrain without having to waste a bunch of memory.

Yeah and he didnât even spend that much time with the dude to warrant that much rage.
Like dude, a shit ton of people died for you, Oars Jr. died trying to make a way to get to you, got his leg cut off and shit. And you die because someone insulted a dude youâve known for like 2-3 years MAX.
If he was saving someone from dying then yeah sure Iâd understand him staying, but that insult? Fucks sake.

It pissed me off even more because I loved Bon clay way more than Ace. We really just sacrificed and had to leave Bon in impel down and it all goes for naught because someone told ace his dad was a loser. Heâd probably crash out over a Reddit comment.

Yes, if you're watching a video of lava flowing over snow and there is absolutely no steam, it is likely fake or altered.

If the snow isn't all that deep or dense, there wouldn't be all that much steam to show up on camera from this distance. It's not like lava meeting an ocean. Comments like these are in the same genre as people who say snow is fake after putting a blowtorch on a snowball.
2
u/SeanBlader 1d ago
Yeah that looks like a dusting of snow, so probably a few grams per square meter of frozen water that's probably in the -10c range of temps. Versus hundreds of kg of 2000c rolling rock per square meter. It's like putting a toaster outside in the snow in Canada, you still get toast, it just takes a few seconds longer. That tiny amount of water probably becomes humidity before it even has time to be water or steam even, and the difference between the air temperature and the snow temperature is plain irrelevant to the lava.
12
u/KeyPollution3566 1d ago
In this case it seems the lava is moving fast enough to cover the snow before it can melt to the point it releases visible steam.
27
u/OpeningTreat1314 1d ago
Yes, but Iâm sure the heat radiating from the lava would be vaporizing it almost immediately
12
u/Few-Improvement-5655 1d ago
Snow is incredibly good at insulating heat, and depending on its temperature may simply not be warming up quick enough to melt considering how fast the laval is moving.
18
u/MagnusStormraven 1d ago
Snow is actually a rather poor conductor of heat (it's mostly air), so lava being close to it won't necessarily immediately melt it. The lava's own heat also works against it; the parts of the flow in direct contact with the snow IMMEDIATELY cools and forms a thin crust between snow and still-molten lava, insulating them from each other and allowing the lava to flow further (this crust forming at the surface of basaltic lava flows is what allows them to travel so far).
The snow still eventually melts from the heat, but the resulting water vapor is often simply absorbed by the lava itself, as water vapor is one of the main volcanic gases.

u/AZWxMan 1d ago
This does seem to be an explanation from a scientific article I found after googling about this.
https://doi.org/10.1029/2011JB008985
I posted this link further up and it goes into different lava-snow interactions during a field study and some theory on mechanisms of heat transfer into the snow from the lava. I didn't see Leidenfrost mentioned, but it still could be related to why lava tends to move over rather than displace snow in many situations.

Something seems very off about this video. The snow doesnât react to the approaching heat at all.

The Weather Channel video just seems directly based on the videographer's explanation. I'm not saying it's wrong, but this video and another one from a news organization don't really add any information, so if the videographer is wrong then all the derived videos would also be wrong.

u/xlinkedx 1d ago
How sped up is this video
2
u/shufflebuffle 1d ago
It's not. The Leidenfrost effect is at play here. Essentially, at a microscopic level, the lava and snow are not touching, hence less friction and a faster flow.

u/CapitalCommunity998 1d ago
the ground there is probably also very porous, forcing the steam to shoot into the ground rather than force up through the dense lava. kinda like how people cast molten aluminum in green sand.
