What can very light, small drops falling from clouds be called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Drizzle

Correct answer: A, drizzle. Drizzle is precipitation made of very small liquid water droplets that fall lightly from a cloud or low cloud layer. The drops are smaller than ordinary raindrops and may seem like a fine, gentle wetting of the air. A is correct because both clues—small drops and light falling—describe drizzle. B, hail, consists of hard balls or lumps of ice that form in strong storm clouds, so it is not made of tiny liquid drops. C, snowflakes are ice crystals or groups of crystals and fall in a frozen form. D, frost is a deposit of ice crystals that forms on cold surfaces when water vapour freezes; it does not normally fall as drops from clouds. Memory cue: drizzle is fine liquid rain; hail is hard ice; snow is made of flakes; frost forms on surfaces.
