Sleet

Frozen drops of rain that fall as pellets of ice and water are called sleet. Sleet is formed when snowflakes partially melt as they fall through a warm layer of air, then refreeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground.

The presence of ice pellets at the surface indicates that there is a mix of rain and snow in the atmosphere. Ice pellets are small balls of ice that form when raindrops freeze before reaching the ground, suggesting that the temperature is cold enough for freezing to occur.

Icey pellets that have a layered structure are likely hail. Hail will usually have soft ice and hard ice layers when sliced open.

The nearly spherical ice pellets with concentric layers formed by the freezing of water layers are known as ice pellets or graupel. Graupel forms when supercooled water droplets freeze on snowflakes or ice crystals, creating a layered structure.

Hail.

Dry ice is sold in a two forms... blocks and pellets. Now, the pellets come in a few different sizes. 1/8", 1/4", and 1/2".

sleet is rain & snow falling at the exact same time

Pellets of frozen rain are called sleet. Sleet forms when rain freezes before reaching the ground, creating small ice pellets.

Ice pellets or sleet.

Sleet is a type of frozen precipitation that consists of small ice pellets. Individual sleet pellets typically have a diameter of 0.2 to 0.4 inches.

Rain is liquid that falls from a clouds.

Glaze ice is frozen or partially frozen raindrops, in the form of ice pellets.

snow or ice pellets.

The word you are looking for is 'hail'

That is sleet, which is frozen raindrops or ice pellets that form when rain passes through a layer of freezing air near the earth's surface.

The main types of precipitation are rain, snow, sleet, and hail. Rain is liquid water droplets falling from clouds, snow is ice crystals falling from clouds, sleet is a mix of rain and snow or ice pellets, and hail is ice pellets formed in thunderstorm updrafts.

Hail is not frozen rain. Hail is formed when updrafts in a thunderstorm carry raindrops into extremely cold areas in the atmosphere where they freeze into ice pellets. These pellets can grow in size as they are carried up and down by the storm's winds before eventually falling to the ground.

Ice pellets that form during a thunderstorm are called hail. Hailstones are formed when strong updrafts carry raindrops into a freezing level of the atmosphere, causing them to freeze and grow larger before falling to the ground.

Sleet.

Balls of ice are called hailstones. They form when strong updrafts in thunderstorms carry raindrops high into the cold upper atmosphere where they freeze into ice pellets.

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.

Hail forms when strong updrafts in thunderstorms carry raindrops high into the cold upper atmosphere, where they freeze into ice. These ice pellets then fall to the ground as hail.

This process describes the formation of snow in clouds. Water vapor freezes onto ice pellets, forming ice crystals that can join together to create larger snowflakes. These snowflakes eventually become heavy enough to fall to the ground as snow.

When water droplets hit ice pellets in a cloud and freeze, they form larger ice particles called graupel. This process is known as accretion. Graupel can continue to grow as more water droplets freeze onto it, eventually becoming large enough to fall as precipitation.

Ice pellets, also known as sleet, are small balls of frozen raindrops. They form when rain freezes while falling through a layer of below-freezing air near the surface. As the frozen raindrops are carried up and down in a storm cloud, additional layers of ice can accumulate on them before reaching the ground.

Hail falls from the sky when supercooled water droplets in a thunderstorm freeze into ice pellets due to updrafts carrying them to colder altitudes. These ice pellets grow as they collide with other droplets and fall to the ground when they become too heavy for the updraft to support.

Hail forms during a rainstorm when strong updrafts in a thunderstorm carry raindrops high into the cold upper atmosphere where they freeze into ice pellets. These ice pellets grow larger as they are carried up and down by the updrafts, eventually becoming heavy enough to fall to the ground as hailstones.

Pellets of icy snow, also known as graupel, are small, soft hail or snow pellets that form when supercooled water droplets freeze onto a snowflake. They are opaque and can be mistaken for small hail, but they are soft and easily break apart when touched. Graupel typically forms in convective clouds during thunderstorms or as snowfall in colder conditions.

Sleet is a type of precipitation consisting of small clear to translucent ice particles. Sleet forms when raindrops freeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground.

Hail forms in thunderstorms when updrafts carry raindrops into cold regions of the atmosphere where they freeze into ice pellets. These pellets grow as they are lifted and fall to the ground when they become too heavy for the updrafts to support.

Rain is made up of water droplets, sleet is made up of small ice pellets.

You get ice pellets, colloquially known as sleet in the U.S.

No, hail is not formed by rain. Hail is formed when updrafts in thunderstorms carry raindrops into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere, where they freeze into ice pellets. These ice pellets grow larger as they are circulated by updrafts and downdrafts within the storm cloud, eventually falling to the ground as hailstones.

It starts with evaporation. The water gets evaporated and turns into clouds. Up highg in the sky it is ice pellets. When it rains the ice melts, when it snows, the collect dust particles and stuff...and when it ices, it stays the same.

Small balls of ice are typically referred to as hail. They form within thunderstorms when updrafts carry raindrops into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere where they freeze, creating ice pellets that eventually fall to the ground.

When ice falls from the sky, it is called sleet. Sleet forms when snowflakes partially melt as they pass through a warm layer of air, then refreeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground.

An example of sleet would be when snowflakes partially melt as they pass through a warm layer of air, and then refreeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground. This results in a mixture of ice pellets and water droplets falling as precipitation.

Hail forms when strong updrafts in thunderstorms carry raindrops into extremely cold upper atmospheric layers, where they freeze into ice pellets. These ice pellets then collide with other water droplets and grow in size before eventually falling to the ground as hailstones.

no they are not

A plus

Yes, hail is a form of solid precipitation that consists of balls or lumps of ice. Hail is created when raindrops are carried into colder regions of a storm cloud and freeze into ice pellets before falling to the ground.

Because the temperature higher in the atmosphere is above freezing, allowing snowflakes to melt into ice. If you're experiencing sleet (ice pellets), that meanst that there is a fairly thick layer of subfreezing air at the surface, allowing the rain to freeze back into ice pellets. If rain is falling and freezing on contact (freezing rain), that means the cold layer at the surface is shallow and the rain has no time to freeze before reaching the surface. It then freezes on contact with cold surfaces, forming a glaze of ice.
