How Does Freezing Rain Lead To Dangerous Glaze Ice Formation? Have you ever wondered how freezing rain forms and why it can create such dangerous conditions? In this informative video, we’ll explain the process behind glaze ice formation caused by freezing rain. We’ll start by describing how snowflakes melt high in the sky as they pass through a warm layer of air, turning into rain. We’ll then discuss how this rain cools as it moves through a shallow cold layer near the ground, remaining in liquid form through supercooling. When supercooled raindrops hit surfaces that are at or below freezing temperatures, they freeze instantly, creating a smooth, transparent layer of ice known as glaze ice. We’ll explore how this ice buildup can happen rapidly, creating heavy, slick coatings on roads, trees, and power lines. The video also covers how wind can influence ice formation by removing heat from surfaces, making the ice even more dangerous. Additionally, we’ll explain the role of temperature inversions—where warm air is trapped between cold layers—in facilitating freezing rain. Understanding this process is key to recognizing why freezing rain leads to hazardous driving conditions, power outages, and risks to aircraft.
