All of these are forms of precipitation. Air temperature and pollution particles inside clouds contribute to the formation of each.

In an order of severity, we would split them as:

  • drizzle
  • rain
  • heavy rainstorm or monsoon

In warm temperatures, rain can progress to:

  • rain
  • hail

As temperatures drop, the progression can be:

  • moisture or rain
  • snow

As temperatures drop further, we can have:

  • rain
  • freezing rain
  • ice and sleet
