Is Snow Frozen Rain?
Hail or sleet is frozen rain, but snow is never formed as a frozen raindrop.
Snow forms from ice crystals high above the earth. These particles turn into snow without first becoming rain.
At the height that snow usually forms, the temperature is from 20 to 60 degrees below zero, far too cold for water to exist as a liquid.
