According to Mount Washington Observatory, someone was trying to breakfast outside when the pasta froze mid-air – with the fork suspended in air between the noodles. It only took about 15 seconds for the fork to freeze into place. The observatory reported temperatures of -30 degrees Fahrenheit with 65 mph winds on Tuesday. The observatory posted a photo on social media Tuesday morning showing off a fork suspended in mid-air by frozen strands of spaghetti.

“One of our Observers found an area out of the 65+ mph winds this morning and was going to have some leftover spaghetti for breakfast at #sunrise but the -30F (-34C) temperatures prevented them from even taking a bite,” Mount Washington Observatory wrote.



The picture has gone viral on social media, and Twitterati had a lot of shocked as well as hilarious responses to it. One user wrote, ”I honestly don’t mind cold pasta… but this is a whole new level of cold.”
