What is frezzing rain?
Freezing rain occurs when rain falls onto a surface that is below freezing temperature, causing the rain to freeze upon contact and create a layer of ice. This can result in very slippery conditions on roads, sidewalks, and other surfaces, making travel hazardous.
Compare and contrast freezing rain and sleet?
Freezing rain occurs when rain falls and freezes upon contact with surfaces, creating a smooth and transparent ice layer. Sleet consists of ice pellets formed when raindrops freeze before reaching the ground. Freezing rain poses a greater hazard as it creates a slippery ice glaze on surfaces, while sleet accumulates as small ice pellets on the ground.
When rain or snow falls down what is it called?
Rain, snow, and ice are three forms of precipitation, liquid or ice formed by the condensation of water vapor from the air.
What are Frozen drops of rain that fall as pellets of ice and water?
Frozen drops of rain that fall as pellets of ice and water are called sleet. Sleet is formed when snowflakes partially melt as they fall through a warm layer of air, then refreeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground.
What is a kind of rain but the drops are ice?
Frozen raindrops are sleet, individual pellets of ice.Snow is formed by ice crystals that form around a particle of dust.Hail is a ball of frozen ice that accumulates by layers in a thunderstorm.
When are highways most slippery?
The highways are most slippery when ice covers the surface. They are also very slippery at the beginning of a rain, where the oils on the road are brought up from the moisture, but not yet washed away by the rain.

What layer of ice forms when rain freezes after it hits a surface?
A glaze of ice forms, known as freezing rain. This can create a dangerous and slippery surface when it accumulates on roads, walkways, and other surfaces.

Rain, snow, and ice are three forms of precipitation, liquid or ice formed by the condensation of water vapor from the air.
What is freezing rain and how will it become a hazard?
Freezing rain is rain that falls as liquid water but freezes upon contact with surfaces that are at or below freezing temperatures. This creates a layer of ice, which can make roads, sidewalks, and other surfaces extremely slippery, leading to hazardous driving and walking conditions.
What is the difference between glaze ice and rain?
Rain is liquid that falls from a clouds. Glaze ice is frozen or partially frozen raindrops, in the form of ice pellets.
What happens when ice falls into the ocean?
it becomes more salty
What happens when there is freezing rain?
it's either there would be cold rain drops or no rain at all because the weather isn't hot so there would be less evaporation and the wind activity is much lesser I think. What does very cold mean? I suspect it would turn to snow or ice.
Where does condensation take place in the atmosphere?
Clouds form and the water falls out of the air as ice or rain.
Can you give me a word slippery in a sentence?
the ice rink is very slippery
Does rain come from a sweating cloud?
No. Rain comes from clouds, but the clouds do not sweat. Clouds are made of water droplets, ice crystals, or a combination of the two. Rain falls when ice crystals grow inside a cloud, melt, and fall to the ground.
