Another planet is out there, and...
There's a lake. A VERY, VERY LARGE lake. And it heats up to well over 100 degrees. That's when a potent arctic front comes through. And the freezing point there is a whopping 60 degrees! That's the point at which all *** breaks loose. Parts of the lake can heat up to temps as high as 200 degrees. So when the cold air sweeps through, there is an immense blanket lying upon the floor of the planet, forming an immense wall around the lakes edges. The cold front is at a temperature of approx. -34 degrees. The coldest areas are a whopping -35 degrees. There are streams of air in the front, which are composed of relatively mild, humid air, part of the cold front as well; they are 45 degrees Fahrenheit, and upon passing through the water, have interesting consequences. There are horizontal vortexes that form around the lake. The atmosphere acts just as if it were dense as water. At any given moment, there can be many types of ice crystals developing and falling. At one place, there can be multiple types of flakes fall in a matter of minutes. The animals are able to see in many different frequencies of the EM spectrum. Some can see an extremely broad spectrum, while others specialize in seeing extremely specific wavelengths. An example would be seeing a specific slice of the color green. Even if an animal's eyesight permits them to only see, say, a 400-460 nm range, then the animal will use multiple colors to perceive that small range!!!!! And it could also be the other way around, in which an animal uses only one color for the entire visible light spectrum. Could you imagine? Talk about the fact that reality is subjective. And some of the lifeforms here are even able to survive on methane alone.
