Answer:
4 forms of precipitation :
1. Rain
2. Snow
3. Drizzle
4. Glaze or Freezing Rain
Explanation:
there are also many other forms of precipitation:
1. Rain
Rain is a form of precipitation which is in the form of water drops of a size that is larger than 0.5mm. The maximum raindrop size is about 6mm. Drops of larger size break up into smaller drops as it falls down on the Earth’s surface.
Rainfall is the predominant form of precipitation and therefore, the term precipitation is used synonymously with rainfall. The magnitude of the rainfall shows high temporal and spatial variation. This variation causes the occurrence of hydrologic extremes like floods and droughts.
2. Snow
Snow consists of ice crystals in a flaky form, having an average density of 0.1g/cc. It is also an important form of precipitation that usually forms in colder climates and higher altitudes.
3. Drizzle
Drizzle is a fine sprinkle of tiny water droplets that have a size less than 0.5mm and intensity greater than 1mm/h. The tiny drops that form a drizzle appear floating in the air.
4. Glaze or Freezing Rain
The glaze is formed when rain or drizzle comes in direct contact with the cold ground at around 0 degrees celsius. This water drops freeze to form an ice coating known as glaze.
5. Sleet
Sleet is frozen raindrops that are formed when rainfall passes through the air in the atmosphere at subfreezing temperatures.
6. Hail
Hail is a kind of showery precipitation in the form of pellets or lumps that have a size greater than 8mm. Hail occurs during the violent thunderstorms.
These are the examples of precipitation.
