FreezingRain - Freezing rain begins as snow falling from a cloud towards the earth. It melts completely on its way down through a layer of warm (above freezing) air and then supercools in a small layer of cold air just before it impacts the surface. Due to being supercooled the water freezes again upon impact. The ice can accumulate to thicknesses of several centimeters.
FirstChill - Winter begins when the average daily temperature falls below 43 degrees F. Plant growth stops; leaves, stems, and flowers die.
