What does sleet mean?
noun
A type of winter precipitation that is a mixture of rain and snow, or a type of frozen raindrops that fall from the sky. It is a form of precipitation that occurs when snowflakes fall through a layer of warm air, causing them to melt into raindrops, which then pass through a layer of cold air, causing them to freeze into small, transparent ice pellets.
Example
"The sleet made the roads slippery and difficult to drive on."
