It can hit a power line or a cable box thing
Freezing rain and heavy snow cause power failures by building up on overhead power lines, overburdening them. They either snap the line from the weight or come loose from their connectors to the poles and come down.
Global warming
we just wathced a movie about it in my science class: Freezing rain will layer on everything and get several inches thick. this will cause power outages and make it so transportion is impossible. all electircal lines and things will eventually fall over and break if it gets to heavy. hope this helps!!
Freezing rain occurs when the temputer ins below freezing
The sleet clings to power lines and transformers. As the weight of this ice builds up, it breaks the line away from the power pole. It also knocks branches from trees which can also break the power lines.
When it gets above freezing when it rains then it gets below freezing it causes freezing rain.
Freezing rain Sleet
Freezing rain is composed of super-cooled waterwhich freezes on contact with any freezing surface, forming glaze ice.Ordinary rain has a temperature above freezing and will not instantly turn to ice.
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.

The phenomenon of rain freezing on contact with a cold object is called "freezing rain".
