Where does freezing rain occur on the earth?
Freezing rain typically occurs in regions where the temperature is below freezing at the surface but warmer higher up in the atmosphere. This can happen in various parts of the world, including North America, Europe, and parts of Asia.
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.
What includes all the water on and below earth's surface and in the atmosphere?
The hydrosphere includes all the water on and below Earth's surface, such as oceans, rivers, lakes, groundwater, and ice caps, as well as water in the atmosphere in the form of clouds, water vapor, and precipitation.
How can it be raining if the temperature is below freezing?
This is because there is a temperature inversion at the surface, which can occur for several reasons. This means that the air above the surface is actually warmer, and in this case above freezing, than the air right on the ground. This causes snow from higher in the atmosphere to melt into raindrops, but the rain doesn't have enough time to refreeze into ice pellets (Sleet) before reaching the ground, so you get rain. This is called freezing rain though, since those sub-freezing temperatures on the ground cause the rain to freeze on contact. This creates a sheet of ice, or glaze, covering everything.
What temperature causes frost?
Frost usually forms when a surface cools through loss of heat to a temperature which is colder than the dewpoint of the air in contact (and around it) and the surface itself has a temperature which at or below freezing point. An example is a store freezer. The inside surface of the freezer is chilled below freezing point, when the freezer is opened the warming air containing moisture hits that surface and freezes
What is the Ice deposited by the atmosphere on a surface that is below freezing called?
Frost.
What is ice deposited by the atmosphere on a surface that is below freezing is called?
Frost.
What is the Definition of frost?
the definition of frost is:ice that has been deposited on a surface with a temperature that is below freezing. so yeah.
Does it sleet in the winter?
Sleet requires temperatures to be below freezing in the lower part of the atmosphere and at the surface, so yes, it occurs in the winter.
Can it hail in Haiti?
Hail is produced in the upper atmosphere, and it can be below freezing in the upper atmosphere anywhere in the world.

What is the layer below the atmosphere?
Troposphere it is. It is the closest to the earth's surface.
What pair of neighbor planets is least alike?
Venus and Mars are the least alike in our solar system. Venus is a hot, inhospitable planet with a thick atmosphere and surface temperatures hot enough to melt lead, while Mars is a cold, arid planet with a thin atmosphere and surface temperatures that can reach below freezing.
How do you calculate the pressure acting on an organism below the ocean's surface?
add 1 atm (atmosphere) for every 10 meters below the surface
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.
What jupter below atmosphere?
Nobody knows for certain what the surface of Jupiter looks like below its atmosphere. Since the planet is a gas giant, we might expect it to look something like the surface of the sun, but not on fire.
What are scientists who study the properties and movement of water on and below the Earth's surface and atmosphere?
newton
