Although increasingly mild conditions of late suggests with certainty that we won’t experience a white Christmas this year (at least here in Ireland), YouTube is attempting to bring some much needed festive cheer by providing a snow overlay option on some of the millions of videos available to watch on the video sharing service.
A small snowflake icon appears towards the bottom-right of most YouTube videos once the play button has been pressed. When the snowflake icon is pressed, small flakes of snow begin to fall and accumulate at the bottom-half of the video viewing frame.
Snowflakes keep falling even when a video is paused, and are disrupted by hovering your mouse over the video. Try it out on this video below;
