Both sleet and freezing rain occur generally the same. They occur when
liquid raindrops that form in a layer of warm air fall into a layer of freezing
air that stretches to ground level. The difference between these two forms of precipitation
depends on how thick the layer of
freezing
air is.

The cause behind these changes is the that the temperature is changing while it is raining, so when it drops to 32 degrees F or below, it is snow. At 32 degrees F, it is sleet, and at higher than 32 degrees, it is going to be freezing rain.
