Answer:
It hits the ground as liquid water—rain—then freezes as it touches a freezing cold surface, such as a tree branch, a road, or a bridge. Hail also consists of ice pellets, but hailstones are larger than the tiny pellets that make up sleet.
Answer:
Ice pellets are a form of precipitation consisting of small, translucent balls of ice. Ice pellets are different from graupel ("soft hail") which is made of frosty white rime, and from a mixture of rain and snow which is a slushy liquid or semisolid. Ice pellets often bounce when they hit the ground or other solid objects, and make a higher-pitched "tap" when striking objects like jackets, windshields, and dried leaves, compared to the dull splat of liquid raindrops. Pellets generally do not freeze into a solid mass unless mixed with freezing rain.
