Sleet is similar to snow, it looks like snow
but it feels a little more wet on your skin. When snowflakes fall through air
that is above freezing temperatures on their journey to the ground
some of them start to melt and begin to turn into raindrops.
Since sleet is partially melted snow
when it hits the ground it doesn't stick like snow
and instead just melts away.
This means you can't build snowmen out of sleet.
Sleet can get slushy and be slippery to walk on
so it's best to wear welly boots on your feet.
