This is a form of winter precipitation. it is frozen precipitation falling as ice pellets. snowflakes melt into raindrops as they pass through a thin layer of warmer air. the raindrops then refreeze into particles of ice when they fall into a layer of sub-freezing air near the surface of the earth. this precipitation is called a) hail. b) rain. c) sleet. d) snow.

Answer;

C. Sleet

Explanation;Precipitation is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapor that falls under gravity. The main forms of precipitation include drizzle, rain, sleet, snow, graupel and hail.Precipitation occurs when a portion of the atmosphere becomes saturated with water vapor, so that the water condenses and precipitates.Sleet also known as ice pellets form when snow falls into warm layer then melts into rain and then the rain droplets falls in a freezing layer of air that is cold enough to refreeze the raindrops into ice pellets.

Pretty sure the answer is b : )
