Ice storm

An ice storm, also known as a glaze event or a silver storm, is a type of winter storm characterized by freezing rain.^[1] The U.S. National Weather Service defines an ice storm as a storm which results in the accumulation of at least 0.25-inch (6.4 mm) of ice on exposed surfaces.^[2]^[3] They are generally not violent storms but instead are commonly perceived as gentle rains occurring at temperatures just below freezing.
