THE SLEET

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.

We still made the best of it

*The sleet broke lots of branches and tipped a lot of trees over so there’s plenty of wood on the forest ground.

*We decided to gather the wood and make things out of it.

*We made birds houses: and beehives panels:
