It is “Winter Weather Awareness Week” with National Weather Service from November 10th – 15th.   Today, I would like to bring awareness to the various types of perception.  I mean, everyone knows rain, but there is a difference between freezing rain and sleet.

I always mark the difference between freezing rain and sleet in this manner.  Freezing Rain is rain that refreezes on surfaces quickly.  I view sleet has frozen raindrops which depending on temperatures, can refreeze into ice.
