Snow does occur when temperature is below freezing because snow is just frozen rain . Lets say it rains , and the temperature is below freezing , that rain would become snow . So temperature below freezing means having snow is true .
Yes. Water vapor in the air can condense (like the water that forms on your cold glass of soda) and fall. If the temperature is warm, the water falls as rain. If the temperature is cold enough, the water freezes and falls as hail or snow.
depends how cold the climate and temperature of the region. Generally it will fall as rain, but at temperatures close to freezing will fall as sleet, and freezing or below..snow.
Like air bubbles in boiling water, snow does not form out of nothing. There has to be a defect, a foreign substance. In the case of snow, its existence probably starts with a piece of dirt floating in air and drawn by rising air upward. Water moisture in air causes some water molecules to cling to the dirt particle. A small water droplet is forming. If the air temperature is below freezing (about zero degree Celsius at normal atmospheric pressure), the water droplet solidifies and a tiny ice molecule is formed. More water molecules are drawn to the cool icy surface and the slowly-building ice molecules become snow. A fast-forming ice particle will be called hail. A ice-forming failure results in something more like fog. Snow can form even when the tiny icy entity (with a dirt particle in the nucleus) is falling down to earth, if the temperature stays below freezing. Catch a snow flake on your palm and you can see the snow flake melts. However, within the blink of an eye, you can even see a tiny piece of ice in the middle of the puddle of water droplet on you palm.
Rain(drops of water that fall from a cloud and have a diameter of at least 0.5 millimeter) and snow (precipitation in the form of ice crystals or, more often, aggregates of ice crystals). Other forms include sleet (falling small particles of ice that are clear to translucent), glaze (formed when supercooled raindrops turn to ice on colliding with solid objects), hail (hard, rounded pellets or irregular lumps of ice produced in large cumulonimbus clouds), and rime (a deposit of ice crystals formed by the freezing of supercooled fog or cloud droplets on objects whose surface temperature is below freezing).
because it will melt the ice on the sidewalks.
Snow
Anywhere the temperature can go below freezing.
Snow typically forms when the temperature is at or below freezing, which is 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).
Depending on the temperature, water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing can become sleet, ice, or snow.
in oder for it to snow it can not be to cold
When the temperature is below freezing, moisture in the air will crystalize into snowflakes.
snow
Snow forms when the temperature is at or below freezing, which is 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius).
for snow to be snow, not water, the temperature of the air has to be below 0 degrees Celsius (freezing point) and the ground has to be below 0 degrees Celsius.
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing, fall as SNOW . Water drops that fall when the temperature is above freezing fall as RAIN .
If the temperature is above freezing, precipitation would likely fall as rain. Snow and sleet typically occur when temperatures are at or below freezing.
It is unlikely for it to snow when the temperature is 50 degrees Fahrenheit, as snow typically forms when temperatures are at or below freezing (32 degrees Fahrenheit). Warmer temperatures are more conducive to rain rather than snow.
