Sleet
Wat een kolerezooi op de weg vandaag. Het is in het midden van sneeuw en regen. Hier noemen ze dat sleet. En dat was echt wat het was. In ieder geval wel veilig op mn werk aangekomen.
En zo werkt dat;
sleet, precipitation of small, partially melted grains of ice. As raindrops fall from clouds, they pass through layers of air at different temperatures. If they pass through a layer with a temperature below the freezing point, they turn into sleet. Snowflakes that have melted by passing through a warm layer will turn into sleet if they then pass through a freezing layer. Sleet often falls together with snow and rain, and may deposit an icy coating on exposed surfaces. Sleet occurs only during the winter, while hail, a different form of icy precipitation, may fall at any time of the year.
