Snow.
Another name for frozen rain is sleet. It is a type of frozen precipitation that consists of raindrops that have frozen before reaching the ground.
Yes, that is called sleet. Sleet is a type of frozen precipitation that falls as small ice pellets. It forms when raindrops freeze before reaching the ground.
Precipitation occurs when water droplets or ice crystals in the atmosphere become too heavy to remain suspended and fall to the ground. The type of precipitation that falls (rain, snow, sleet, or hail) is determined by the temperature conditions in the lower atmosphere - with colder temperatures resulting in frozen precipitation (snow, sleet, or hail) and warmer temperatures resulting in liquid precipitation (rain).
Precipitation occurs when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into liquid or solid forms and falls to the Earth's surface. The type of precipitation that falls (rain, snow, sleet, or hail) is determined by the temperature of the atmosphere at different altitudes. Warmer temperatures typically result in rain, while colder temperatures lead to snow or other frozen forms of precipitation.
In the tundra biome, precipitation primarily falls as snow. This snow can accumulate over the winter season and create a thick layer of frozen ice and snow on the ground. Rainfall may occur during the warmer months, but snow is the dominant form of precipitation in the tundra.

Hail is a type of precipitation that forms when strong updrafts in a thunderstorm carry water droplets high into the colder regions of the atmosphere, where they freeze into balls of ice.
Precipitation.
Tundra (primarily near the north and south poles) is the biome that is frozen with very little precipitation or vegetation....
Yes, it falls as a frozen form of water, then it's precipitation.

Yes it is a type of precipitation.
Yes it is a type of precipitation.
Sleet is a type of frozen precipitation that consists of small ice pellets. Individual sleet pellets typically have a diameter of 0.2 to 0.4 inches.
