Snow forms when the atmospheric temperature is at or below freezing (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit) and there is a minimum amount of moisture in the air. If the ground temperature is at or below freezing, of course the snow will reach the ground. In the clouds, the water droplets freeze and become ice crystals, or snow!
What else can I help you with?
Does it have to be three degrees above freezing to snow?
in oder for it to snow it can not be to cold
Does it have to be freezing for it to snow?
No, it does not have to be freezing for it to snow. Snow can form when the air temperature is above freezing, as long as the higher atmosphere is cold enough for the snowflakes to remain frozen until they reach the ground.
Should you shovel snow if freezing rain expected?
It is generally not recommended to shovel snow if freezing rain is expected, as clearing the snow could create an icy surface when the rain freezes on top of it. It is safer to wait until after the freezing rain has passed before shoveling snow.
Can snow melt at 38 degress?
Snow can start to melt at 38 degrees Fahrenheit, as long as the air temperature remains above freezing. When the temperature rises above freezing, the snow will begin to melt.
Does it have to be below freezing for snow to fall?
No, snow can fall at temperatures above freezing if the upper atmosphere is cold enough for the snowflakes to remain frozen until they reach the ground.
Temperature below freezing means snow?
Snow does occur when temperature is below freezing because snow is just frozen rain . Lets say it rains , and the temperature is below freezing , that rain would become snow . So temperature below freezing means having snow is true .

What is a freezing point depression?
Freezing point depression is when the normal freezing temperature of a liquid is lowered by the addition of another solate for example the freezing temperature of fresh water can be lowered by the introduction of salt. This is why when salt is laid over snow the snow melts because the salt combines with the water in the snow and thereby increases it's freezing temperature.
How does snow stormes form?
Combine snow with freezing temperatures with wind, and you get a blizzard.
Does rain become snow in freezing weather?
no it does not
Is snow rain that is falling in freezing conditions?
yes it is!!
Can snow melt at 38 degress?
Snow can start to melt at 38 degrees Fahrenheit, as long as the air temperature remains above freezing. When the temperature rises above freezing, the snow will begin to melt.
What kind of precipitation would occur if the temperature was above freezing?
If the temperature is above freezing, precipitation would likely fall as rain. Snow and sleet typically occur when temperatures are at or below freezing.
