What else can I help you with?
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing fall as?
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 .
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 are the forms of rain?
The different forms of rain include drizzle (small and light raindrops), showers (brief and intense rain), and heavy rain (continuous and strong rainfall). Additionally, there is freezing rain, which is rain that freezes upon contact with surfaces at or below freezing temperatures.
Raindrops that pass through a layer of freezing air near the ground become?
sleet or freezing rain, depending on the temperature profile. If the raindrops freeze completely into ice pellets before hitting the ground, it is sleet. If the raindrops freeze upon impact with surfaces at or below freezing, it is freezing rain.
What kind of precipitation would occur if the temperature was above freezing?
If the temperature is above freezing, precipitation would likely fall as rain. Snow and sleet typically occur when temperatures are at or below freezing.
What temp does freezing rain occur?
Freezing rain occurs when the temputer ins below freezing
How does it change for snowfall or freezing rain?
When it gets above freezing when it rains then it gets below freezing it causes freezing rain.
Temperature below freezing means snow?
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 .
If the temperature is below freezing does rain fall?
It becomes sleet...
Water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing fall as?
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 .
When rain lands on surfaces that are at or below the frezzing temperature?
When rain lands on surfaces that are at or below freezing temperature, it freezes and forms ice. This can create hazardous icy conditions on roads, walkways, and other surfaces. It is known as freezing rain.
What is temperature at which l rain falls?
Anything above the freezing point, 0* Celsius. Below freezing point, rain turns into snow, sleet, slush or hail.
What type of cloud produces freezing rain?
Freezing rain can come from Cumulonimbus and Nimbostratus clouds, but the clouds are not responsible for the freezing rain. If the precipitation falls from the clouds as snow it must pass through a warm layer of air to melt the snow flakes into rain drops. Then the raindrops must pass through a frigid layer of air that super-cools them. Finally, the rain instantly turns to ice if it lands on a surface that has a temperature below freezing. Then you know you have freezing rain. (see Related Link below for more detail on freezing rain.)
What happens when rain lands on surfaces that are at or below the freezing temperature.?
The water freezes before it can run off causing an ice coating.
What tool would a meteorologist use to learn precipitation will be rain or snow?
A thermometer, because if you are looking for precipitation, if it is above freezing, it will be rain, and if it is below freezing, it will be snow. Hope I answered your question :)
What is the definition of freezing rain?
Freezing rain is caused when you have a precipitating cloud deck with a mass of warm air below it and then a thin mass of freezing air near the ground.When the precipitation falls from the cloud, it will generally be snow. As it encounters the warm air, it melts into the usual water droplets of rain. But right before it reaches the ground, it enters the layer of below-freezing air and quickly turns into super-cooled water droplets. On landing on any freezing object, it instantly turns into a layer of ice.That can turn streets into skating rinks in no time!It falls as a liquid, but when it hits the ground it freezes.
Which type of precipitation happens when the temperature between the clouds and the ground is warmer than zero degrees Celsius freezing?
Rain occurs when the temperature is above freezing both in the clouds and at the ground level. If the temperature in the clouds is below freezing but at the ground level it is above freezing, sleet or freezing rain may occur.
