This is frozen rain, which can be part of an ice storm.
(Sleet is rain that freezes into ice pellets as it falls.)
Yes, rain is typically colder than hail because rain is liquid water, while hail is frozen water. Hail forms when raindrops are carried into colder regions of the atmosphere where they freeze, resulting in ice pellets that can fall to the ground.
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing and become solid are called snowflakes.
Water drops that fall to earth from the atmosphere are called rain. Rain is a crucial part of the water cycle, replenishing bodies of water on the earth's surface and providing moisture for plant growth.
Rain: Water droplets that fall from clouds. Snow: Ice crystals that fall from clouds. Sleet: Frozen raindrops that partially melt before reaching the ground. Hail: Ice pellets formed in thunderstorm updrafts.
Water drops that fall to the earth typically originate from condensation of water vapor in the atmosphere, forming clouds that eventually become heavy enough to fall as precipitation. This precipitation can take the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail depending on atmospheric conditions such as temperature.
because they are frozen rain drops
The word you are looking for is 'hail'
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing, fall as SNOW . Water drops that fall when the temperature is above freezing fall as RAIN .
The silencer is very sad and the water drops are its tears.
If it freezes in the air, it is called sleet (ice pellets). If it freezes on contact with cold surfaces, it is called freezing rain (called glaze in the UK).

Large chunks of frozen water falling from the sky are called hail. Hail forms when strong updrafts and downdrafts within a thunderstorm cause water droplets to freeze into ice pellets before falling to the ground.
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing and become solid are called snowflakes.
Hail is made up of frozen pellets of rain that is made in cumulonimbus clouds. Hail is frozen water crystals that fall from the sky. Hail can range in size from an eighth of an inch to the size of a grapefruit.
