Rain(drops of water that fall from a cloud and have a diameter of at least 0.5 millimeter) and snow (precipitation in the form of ice crystals or, more often, aggregates of ice crystals). Other forms include sleet (falling small particles of ice that are clear to translucent), glaze (formed when supercooled raindrops turn to ice on colliding with solid objects), hail (hard, rounded pellets or irregular lumps of ice produced in large cumulonimbus clouds), and rime (a deposit of ice crystals formed by the freezing of supercooled fog or cloud droplets on objects whose surface temperature is below freezing).
