No I dont think so. Because if its cold enough to snow, the coldness would just freeze the rain and snow, making it into ice. So Im pretty sure it all that would turn into ice.
Garrett, Maryland had rain and snow at the same time during Hurricane Sandy.
A mixture of rain and snow falling at the same time is known as sleet.
There are two main rain/snow making clouds. Nimbostratus, a thick uniformly grey cloud at low heights will cause light to moderate rain or snow to fall over long periods of time. Cumulonimbus, a massive white towering cloud sometimes with the shape of an anvil, with a very dark appearance from below. These clouds will make very heavy rain/snow fall over a short time, often with the presence of lightning. These are the clouds that will make rain and snow
It just means that either the rain was blown from a cloud not directly overhead, or the sun is not overhead (which is more common than not) but a cloud is, causing it to rain.
Generally speaking, rain comes from a cloud that is directly or almost directly above you. The sun, however, is not usually directly overhead. You can have a rain cloud overhead with a break in the clouds to the side where the sun can shine through. In some cases, the wind can blow rain away from the rain cloud and out under clear skies.
Snow lightning is when it is snowing and there is lightning at the same time. It occurs because of the same principles of storm cloud lightning: convergence of distinct temperatures, heavy particles in clouds, and ionized air.
Yes, this occurs when the temperature is around freezing at the surface and is only marginally favorable for snow aloft. All the precipitation begins as snow in the clouds, but on the way to the ground it encounters enough warm air for some of it to melt into rain. The result is a mixture of rain and snow, and is very common. In fact, you can even get a mixture of rain, sleet, and snow!
counting of number of parts of cloud by a fool person at the time of rain for timepass is known as cloud counting
Depending on the time of year, an overcast sky can make the weather cold, or humid. The type of cloud determines whether or not there will be any rain or snow on the way.
If by nimbus you mean nimbostratus, they produce light to moderate rain or snow over a long time. If you mean cumulonimbus, they produce showers of heavy rain. Cumulonimbus also can produce hail, snow, lightning, strong wind and tornadoes. These clouds are also associated with hurricanes, but generally, they are the thunderstorm cloud.
The form of precipitation that consists of both snow and rain falling at the same time is called sleet. It occurs when snowflakes partially melt as they pass through a layer of warm air and then refreeze before reaching the ground.
Yes, it can rain or snow nonstop for a period of time.
