Clouds and wind, watch it unfold. Rain is liquid; snow is ice; Hail and sleet—two icy types! Check the forecast, make your plans— Weather wonders! Now we understand! Rain is liquid—droplets splash below; Ice crystals join to make the flakes of snow. Snow can melt, then freeze above the street— Little ice pellets: that is sleet! Hail grows where strong storm winds rise; Drops freeze onto ice up in the skies. When the upward wind can't hold its load, Hailstones fall on roofs and roads. Weather wonders—warm and cold!
