All these factors have contributed to the crisis at a time when temperatures are hovering around the freezing level in a country where most people use electricity for heat.

For this reason, hail is most common within continental interiors of the mid-latitudes, as hail formation is considerably more likely when the freezing level is below the altitude of.

He said temperatures, which hovered around the freezing level overnight, will again hit lows of minus 3 Celsius ( 27 Fahrenheit ) during the night Tuesday, making streets icy.

In these clouds, scientists found, the cloud tops must grow considerably above the freezing level of 16, 000 feet in order for them to start producing rain by the alternative mechanism.

The French government's representative to the inquiry, Yves Lemercier, of the Bureau Enquetes-Accidents said the problem was that the aircraft was put in a holding pattern " right in the freezing level ."
28.
Entrainment of dry air into strong thunderstorms over continents can increase the frequency of hail by promoting evaporational cooling which lowers the freezing level of thunderstorm clouds giving hail a larger volume to grow in.
29.
Clouds that form just above the freezing level are composed mostly of supercooled liquid droplets, while those that condense out at higher altitudes where the air is much colder generally take the form of ice crystals.

One strange phenomenon they met was that the sea on the comet did not freeze, even though the temperature dropped below the freezing point ( theory that the stationary water level resists freezing level for longer than when a rippled by wind ).
