Snow can only be formed in clouds when ice crystals grow around condensation nuclei. Rain that falls through cold air and freezes is called sleet (ice pellets), unless it doesn't freeze until hitting the surface, in which case it is called freezing rain (or glaze, in some parts of the world).
rain is made up of evaporated water and when it gets cold the rain falls therefore it rains
Sleet forms when raindrops freeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground. This occurs when rain falls through a layer of cold air near the surface.
Water that falls from the sky
Rainfall is typically around the same temperature as the surrounding air when it falls from the sky.
Rain or snow.
Freezing rain...although I believe it's referred to as glaze in Britain
airRain are water droplets that fall from the sky.If it is very cold, or there are layers of vary cold air that the rain passes through on the way down, the water droplets can become snow or balls of hail.
Freezing rain occurs when the layer of freezing air is so thin that the raindrops do not have enough time to freeze before reaching the ground. ... Sleet is simply frozen raindrops and occurs when the layer of freezing air along the surface is thicker. This causes the raindrops to freeze before reaching the ground.
well the answer to this is that mainly hail is found in a thunderstorm that is peices of ice getting bigger and bigger and it is to heavy for the clouds to hold anymore and sleet is just about the same as freezing rain, is rain that occurs when the rain falls into a cold area in the atmosphere where the temperature cold enough for the rain to freeze .
Sleet forms when rain falls through a layer of freezing air and freezes before reaching the ground. It consists of frozen raindrops that bounce when they hit a surface.
Water is first evaporated and then condensed. After that, it returns as rain.
100% of rain falls to Earth. That is the definition of rain. Precipitation.
