Share your precipitype with your friends! You are graupel. You are sensitive and loyal, and those few lucky enough to earn your trust couldn’t ask for a better friend. In fact you tend to be inseparable from your partner or closest friend, like graupel, which forms when supercooled water droplets (liquid below freezing point) freeze onto a snow crystal before falling. Together, you easily weather difficult times just as graupel can form in thunderstorm clouds or winter ones. Graupel disintegrates easily when handled. Similarly, you are highly sensitive and can be upset by critical or careless comments. However, your sensitivity is also your strength and you use it to connect with the world and others.
