Avalanche
noun
When snow crumbles down a slope, you have an avalanche.
This reading is an exception. Let's use this mnemonic to remember it:
If you get stuck under an avalanche, not a ray (なだれ) of light will reach you. Snow is white, so you might think it's light under there, but nope. Unfortunately, not a single ray of light can penetrate an avalanche, so not only will you be cold, but you'll be stuck in the dark too.
