What is the sign of sleet weather?

The sign of sleet is to draw a snowflake with a few drops of rain under it.

This sleet marks the coming of winter. Because the hot air flow in the upper layer is ordinary, once cold air comes in the stratosphere, it will produce water vapor. Too much strong cold air will form snowflakes, but sometimes it will rain where there is little or weak cold air, so sleet will be produced under the action of airflow or wind.

For example, a light snow is a sign of a snowflake. If it is a medium snow, it is a sign of two heavy snows, which is a sign of three snowflakes. I am cloudy and snowy, so I will draw a cloud and a snowflake. Sleet is raindrops and snowflakes, and they love each other.

The cause of sleet

The special condensation phenomenon of sleet requires temperature, which mainly occurs when the temperature of the part closest to the ground is slightly higher than the freezing point of water (0℃ or 32℉). For the low-level warm air below the freezing height, in order to melt the snow falling from the high clouds into rain, the air layer thickness of the warm air will change between 230m and 460 m.
