Fog on snow

There was a light fog early Friday morning as I left for work that was rather pretty.
The fog put a coating of frost on the weeds and trees that it touched, but it only coated the bottom three or four feet.
The path to my little apiary was coated in frost.
We had a snow fall of about four inches this week that coated everything and was partially covering the front of each hive, though there was still room for them to get out.
The snow as accompanied by some pretty cold temperatures so some ice had formed on the front entrance of the hives.  A few days later, though, the ice had melted and a few bees were flying from each hive with temperatures in hte mid-40s.
