Discussion
Three of the following are precipitation types formed through the ice phase. Which is the odd one out?
Answer: B
Correct answer: drizzle from a shallow maritime stratocumulus
Shallow maritime stratocumulus is warmer than freezing throughout, so its drizzle forms by collision and coalescence alone - the warm rain process. The other three all pass through the ice phase: rain that began as snow, snow that reached the ground unmelted, and hail grown by riming in a convective updraught.
