Forms of precipitation:
Sleet: Pellets of ice formed by the freezing of raindrops or the refreezing of melted snowflakes as they fall through a subfreezing layer of air near the Earth's surface. Sleet pellets bounce when striking the ground.
Glaze (Freezing Rain): Supercooled raindrops that freeze instantly upon contact with cold surfaces on the ground, forming a smooth ice coating.
Hail: Hard, rounded balls or lumps of ice ($\gt 5\text{ mm}$) formed inside convective cumulonimbus storm clouds by alternating upward and downward drafts.
Snow: Ice crystals in the form of hexagonal flakes directly sublimated from water vapor.
