What is sleet ?

*It is formed when it rains and the temperature is bellow freezing.

*It is a coat of ice that covers everythig it rains on.

When does it form ?

*It forms when the weather is cold and a surge of warm air comes.

*Because the air is warm it rains istead of snows.

*When the drops hit the floor they instantly freeze and form the ice layer.

Why is it so bad ?

*When there‘s too much ice it becomes so heavy that the thing it‘s on just crumbles.

*It freezes cars and other machines.

*It blocks a lot of roads.

*And it does the most damage to telephone and electricity pylons, snaping wires, twisting the metal pylons and snaping the wood ones in half.
