Weather – The Dreaded Mix
Precipitation that leaves pilots on the ground
AOPA’s Flight Training Magazine by Jack Williams
Understanding Ice – Supercooled water poses a danger in flight
Understanding ice begins with forgetting what you might have been told in school about water turning into ice when its temperature drops below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. This temperature is really the one at which ice begins to melt.
Small amounts of water—such as tiny cloud, drizzle, and rain drops—normally cool well below 32 degrees F without turning into ice. In fact, scientists have found tiny liquid cloud drops in high clouds that are colder than minus 40 degrees F, and have created even colder liquid water drops in laboratories.
Supercooled water is dangerous because it instantly freezes when it hits something. Ice forms on an airplane when it flies through a cloud of supercooled water drops. When supercooled raindrops fall, they coat trees, power lines, and airplanes on ramps with ice when they hit. —JW
RAIN - Frozen precipitation melts and reaches the ground as rain.
FREEZING RAIN - Frozenprecipitation melts in warm air. Rain falls and freezes on cold surfaces.
SLEET – Frozen precipitation melts in shallow warm air, then refreezes into sleet before reaching the surface.
