many people think it is freezing rain but really it is sleet! Sleet starts out frozen hits a pocket of warm air starts to melt then it hits a cold pocket of air before it hits the ground. it may repeat this pattern various times before hitting the ground.
Frost is the term used to describe tiny ice crystals that form when water vapor in the air condenses and freezes on surfaces near the ground.
Frozen ground swell, also known as frost heave, is caused by the expansion of water when it freezes, leading to uplift of the ground surface. When water in the soil freezes, it creates pressure that pushes the soil particles upwards. This can cause damage to roads, buildings, and other structures.
When water in the ground freezes, it expands and exerts pressure on the surrounding rock and soil. This expansion can cause the rock to crack and break apart, leading to the mechanical weathering of the rock layers. Over time, repeated freezing and thawing cycles can contribute to the breakdown of rocks and the development of soil.
On the Fahrenheit scale, water freezes, or melts, at 32 degrees. Likewise, water freezes at 0.0 Celsius.
The crystalline water that falls out of the cold atmosphere is known as snow. Snow forms when water vapor in the atmosphere freezes into ice crystals and then falls to the ground.
A hailstorm is when the precipitation is composed of ice lumps. An ice storm is when the precipitation is freezing rain. The water stays liquid until when it hits the ground, and freezes where it hits.
When water is thrown in the air and freezes instantly, it forms tiny ice crystals that fall to the ground as snow.

An increase in storm runoff to rivers most likely would affect ground water by reducing the amount of infiltration and groundwater recharge. This is where water moves downward from surface water to ground water.
Water seeps down into the earth. As it freezes, it expands. It can crack apart the ground, rocks, or other areas that had been saturated.

When it freezes.
Not all above ground pools have to be disassembled during winter, although it is a good idea to drain them. Water expands when it freezes, and if the water is trapped in a closed container or in a crack, the expansion can break the container or the material surrounding it. Pipes often break, when water inside them freezes.
It floats when it freezes.
There is NO Sewer water in the subways only ground / storm water and the sump pumps are located at the lowest point and pumped up to a combination sewer or storm water system.=Just like the tunnels going under water=
Cold water freezes faster then warm water.
