Storm threatens NC: Difference between a watch and warning, other weather terms
Sleet is different from freezing rain, occurring when snowflakes partially melt as they descend through a shallow layer of warm air. They refreeze as they fall through a deep layer of freezing air above the surface. They become frozen rain drops before hitting the ground, recognizable when they bounce. Like snow, sleet can accumulate on the ground.
