Shareable precipitype - Sleet

Share your precipitype with your friends! You are sleet. You are independent and enjoy exploring new things. Unlike precipitypes that fall to the ground mostly unchanged, sleet starts off as snow, then melts when it encounters warm air as it falls, and refreezes before hitting the ground. During this transition, sleet refreezes into a spheroid shape, different from its original crystalline form. Similarly, you embrace change and strive for self-discovery, no matter where it leads you. You love to try new things and trust that you’ll remain true to yourself even through all the new experiences. Your independence and comfort with change make you resilient — you bounce back easily after encountering difficult situations, similarly to how sleet bounces when it lands.
