How it's used
This term is strictly confined to the context of illicit drug use and carries a heavy, negative connotation. It describes the physical and mental collapse that follows the high, often used by people within that subculture or by social workers and medical staff dealing with substance abuse. It is never used to describe actual snow melting or any other literal process.
Examples
He felt terrible during his meth comedown after using.
Are you having a meth crash? Why are you so lethargic all the time?

Common phrases

Common mistake
Do not use this term in any casual or non-drug-related context, as it is highly specific jargon. Using it to describe being tired from work or lack of sleep will cause confusion or be seen as inappropriate.
