What is another word for Sleeting?
Pronunciation: [slˈiːtɪŋ] (IPA) 
Sleeting is a weather condition where frozen precipitation in the form of sleet falls from the sky. Some synonyms for sleeting include hail, snow pellets, frozen rain, ice pellets, and wintry mix. Hail is a form of frozen precipitation that is larger than sleet and can cause damage to buildings and crops. Snow pellets are small, white, opaque snowballs that are similar in size to sleet. Frozen rain occurs when raindrops freeze upon contact with cold surfaces, like tree branches or cars. Ice pellets, also known as graupel, are small, soft balls of ice that form when supercooled water droplets freeze onto falling snowflakes. Wintry mix is a combination of any of these types of frozen precipitation.
