When the dew point is below the freezing point of water (0° C), the equilibrium is between water vapor and ice. If saturated air that is already at 0° C is chilled further, ice crystals will form and precipitate out of the air. The most common example of this is snow, but I have personally experienced ice crystals falling out of a clear sky on a very cold sunny day (around -10 °F) with no wind to stir up existing snow or ice.
