Sleet consists of small ice pellets that form when raindrops freeze before hitting the ground, often creating a layer of ice. In contrast, slush is a mixture of partially melted snow and water, typically found in wet, slushy conditions after a snowfall when temperatures rise. While sleet is solid and can create slippery surfaces, slush is more fluid and may be easier to walk through, although it can still be messy. Both forms occur in wintry weather but represent different stages and states of precipitation.

The cause of snow to slush?
Snow turns to slush due to a rise in temperature, causing the snow to melt and become a mix of water and partially melted ice. This process occurs when the air temperature is above freezing (32°F or 0°C), leading to the transformation of snow into slush.

What is Rain that freezes on the way down called?
Condensed water molecules fall out of clouds as snow. If they hit a warmer part of air (over 32 degrees F) then they melt into rain. If they hit a colder part of air before they hit the ground, but after they go through the warmer air, then they form a slushy like snow called sleet.
What is the difference between a slushy and a icey?
Slushy is when the slush is almost water. Icey is when the water is solid.
