Well to firstly understand the question you are asking you have to understand precipitation. Now Precipitation is when water from the sea,rivers or lakes is evaporated it goes up into the sky(as a gas) which it then condenses and form water vapour which we see as clouds and when the water vapour become to heavy they fall as rain, hail or snow. Now when rain falls through the air at freezing temperatures I does not freeze the water they stay as water form and hail. I hope this helps you F. A. G. G. O. T
What else can I help you with?
What do raindrops become by passing through a layer of freezing air near the ground?
Raindrops which pass through a layer of freezing air near the ground become sleet.
Raindrops that pass through a layer of freezing air near the ground become?
sleet or freezing rain, depending on the temperature profile. If the raindrops freeze completely into ice pellets before hitting the ground, it is sleet. If the raindrops freeze upon impact with surfaces at or below freezing, it is freezing rain.
What does raindrops become when they fall through air at freezing temperatures?
depends on how cold anything from snow to sleet or even hail.
Why does cold windshield become covered with ice when struck by raindrops?
because of freezing,zohaib zulfiqar
What type of precipitation involves water turning into ice and freezing?
The type of precipitation that involves water turning into ice and freezing is called freezing rain. This occurs when raindrops become supercooled as they fall through below-freezing temperatures, and then freeze upon contact with cold surfaces on the ground.
What is the name for waterdrops that fall when the temperature is below freezing and the water become solid?
Depending on the temperature, water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing can become sleet, ice, or snow.
What does snow become when it passes through warm air then melts then refreezes near the ground?
When snow passes through warm air, melts, and then refreezes near the ground, it becomes sleet or freezing rain, depending on the temperature conditions. Sleet consists of frozen raindrops, while freezing rain is rain that becomes supercooled and freezes upon contact with surfaces, creating a layer of ice.
How does snow turn into sleet and then freezing rain?
Snow forms when water vapor in the atmosphere freezes into ice crystals. As these snowflakes fall, they pass through warmer air layers, causing them to partially melt and turn into raindrops, which can lead to sleet if they refreeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground. If the raindrops continue to fall through a layer of cold air just above the surface without freezing, they can become supercooled and turn into freezing rain upon contact with cold surfaces, creating a layer of ice.
What are water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing and become solid?
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing and become solid are called snowflakes.
What is the process that causes rain to change to snow?
Rain changes to snow when the temperature drops below freezing (0°C or 32°F) in the atmosphere. As the raindrops fall through the cold air, they freeze and become ice crystals, forming snowflakes. The snowflakes then continue to accumulate and fall to the ground as snow.
What is the melting point Freezing point?
Freezing and melting points are synonyms: at this temperature a solid become a liquid or a liquid become a solid.
What do terms boiling points and freezing point mean?
Melting (freezing) point: the temperature when the solid metal become a liquid. Boiling point: the temperature when the liquid metal become a gas.
