Across
- 3. precipitation that falls from a cloud but evaporates before reaching the ground
- 4. the clustering together of ice crystals to form snowflakes
- 5. ice pellets 5 mm or less in diameter
- 6. the depth of water which would result from melting a snow sample
- 8. an amount of precipitation less than 0.01 inches
- 10. a heavy snow shower that greatly reduces visibility
- 12. the growth of a precipitation particle by the collision of an ice crystal or snowflake with a supercooled liquid droplet
Down
- 1. the merging of cloud droplets into a single larger droplet
- 2. any form of water particles, liquid or solid, that falls from the atmosphere and reaches the ground
- 7. particles of ice that range from pea size to golf ball size usually produced in thunderstorms
- 9. an instrument which can detect objects by how they reflect back microwaves
- 11. solid precipitation made of ice crystals in hexagonal form
