What are the four major types of precipitation?
The four major types of precipitation are rain, snow, sleet, and hail. Rain is liquid water droplets falling to the ground, snow is ice crystals falling to the ground, sleet is rain that freezes as it falls, and hail is ice pellets formed in strong thunderstorms.
How is sleet diffferent from hail?
Sleet is a weather phenomenon that occurs mostly in winter storms. The clouds where the sleet falls from are warmer than the air below. The sleet begins as rain and, as it falls, freezes, becoming rather small ice pellets. Hail, on the other hand, is a weather phenomenon occurring in summer storms. Rain falls from the warmer bottom of storm clouds. Updrafts in the storm lift the rain to the upper, colder regions of the storm clouds, causing the rain to freeze. As the newly formed hail falls, it gathers more moisture, then is caught in another updraft, lifting it up to freeze again. Each time this happens, the hail becomes larger. Normally, hail cycles through a few updrafts before falling, resulting in pea sized hail. During larger storms, especially those that spawn tornadoes, the updrafts are stronger and can cause much larger hail. Aside from these two is freezing rain. This occurs when the ground is at a freezing temperature and the air is warmer. Rain falls and freezes instantly, causing a sheet of dangerous ice on streets, sidewalks, power lines, etc..
Is sleet bigger than hail?
Hail is typically larger than sleet. Hail forms in strong thunderstorms when updrafts carry raindrops into cold regions of the atmosphere where they freeze, forming ice pellets. Sleet consists of small ice pellets that form when rain freezes before reaching the ground.
