when H2O (water) hits snow it turns to ice
Freezing rain is caused when you have a precipitating cloud deck with a mass of warm air below it and then a thin mass of freezing air near the ground.When the precipitation falls from the cloud, it will generally be snow. As it encounters the warm air, it melts into the usual water droplets of rain. But right before it reaches the ground, it enters the layer of below-freezing air and quickly turns into super-cooled water droplets. On landing on any freezing object, it instantly turns into a layer of ice.That can turn streets into skating rinks in no time!It falls as a liquid, but when it hits the ground it freezes.
Yes because rain turns into ice when at the freezing point. Snow turns back to water when it is warm outside.
The raindrops become supercooled while passing through a sub-freezing layer of air many hundreds of feet above the earth, and then freeze upon impact with any surface they encounter.[1]Thus resulting ice cubes
Weathering breaks down rocks on the Earth's surface by wind, rain, or ice.
Freezing rain.
When the rain falls from the top of the cloud, since Cumulonimbus clouds are big the rain freezes up and turns into a ball of ice before it hits the ground.

when the temperature on earth surface is very less or the earth is covered with a thick layer of ice then the rain will be freezing as ice.

It rains at almost any time of the year. When rain freezes on contact with a cold surface, it forms ice, but the rain is called freezing rain.
At first when it comes out of the cloud it is rain and it turns to ice and then to snow flakes.

The rain frezes after a few minutes, because it would be cold out with the snow. The snow turns into ice because of the cold.
Because the temperature higher in the atmosphere is above freezing, allowing snowflakes to melt into ice. If you're experiencing sleet (ice pellets), that meanst that there is a fairly thick layer of subfreezing air at the surface, allowing the rain to freeze back into ice pellets. If rain is falling and freezing on contact (freezing rain), that means the cold layer at the surface is shallow and the rain has no time to freeze before reaching the surface. It then freezes on contact with cold surfaces, forming a glaze of ice.
