Hello from Central TX! A few weeks ago, we got tons of pillowy, perfect snow for the 1st time in my life.

This weekend, we are getting dangerous freezing rain. What conditions create freezing rain instead of wonderful snow?

The nastiest is when the ground is below the freezing temperature of water but the air is above the freezing temperature of water. It rains and then freezes to the ground.
