Sleet is a regionally variant term for two distinct forms of precipitation:

  • Rain and snow mixed, snow that partially melts as it falls (UK, Ireland, and most Commonwealth countries)
  • Ice pellets, one of three forms of precipitation in "wintry mixes", the other two being snow and freezing rain (United States, Canada)

It also is the matter of what Snowstorm is made from. He’s build of sunlight and sleet.
