It is graupeling in Texas right now.
graupel - precipitation that forms when supercooled water droplets are collected and freeze on falling snowflakes
I would like to thank my mom and sister for this as well as the German language for such an awesome word. It is graupeling. Graupelling? I am now sharing it with everyone in ear- and/or textshot.
It's also 34 F so it isn't sticking but is coming down in like three directions simultaneously and therefore surreal to those of us who were living it up at seventy like two days ago. I was pondering my short sleeve shirts people.
In closing: graupel.
