5. What are the four types of precipitation? ​
ExtremeBDS [4]

Rain

Most commonly observed, drops larger than drizzle (0.02 inch / 0.5 mm or more) are considered rain. However, smaller drops are also considered raindrops if, in contrast to drizzle, they are widely separated.

Drizzle

Fairly uniform precipitation composed exclusively of fine drops very close together. Drizzle appears to float while following air currents, but unlike fog droplets, it falls to the ground. Quite often fog and drizzle occur together.

Ice Pellets (Sleet)

Precipitation of transparent or translucent pellets of ice, which are round or irregular hard grains of ice consisting of frozen raindrops, or largely melted then refrozen snowflakes.

Snow

Precipitation of snow crystals that are mostly branched and in the form of six-pointed stars.
