»In which Nature treats us

I know donuts, and this is snow donut. Dough snownuts? Government-documented, even.
It's the same principle as making a snowman, except it's nature doing the rolling. And it doesn't happen often, says Paul Pastelok, an AccuWeather meteorologist in State College, Pa.

"The snow has to be fresh and moist enough to be cohesive but not as moist as the snow we had Monday. There has to be a wind strong enough to get the snow rolling (40 mph sustained ...), but not so strong it blows it away. And there has to be a slope, at least initially, for momentum." -- from the Cincinnati Enquirer.
