In my own words, how is the rime formed?

Simply put, it is formed when supercooled droplets condense on branches or ground objects under cold and high humidity weather conditions.

Rime is often divided into crystal rime and granular rime according to its origin and structure. The crystal rime is needle-shaped, with low density and loose structure, which mostly occurs in cold (below-15℃) breezy weather and is directly formed by the condensation of supersaturated water vapor in the air.

Granular rime is usually an opaque crystal formed by overlapping freezing of fine ice particles, which usually appears in the case of slightly lower air temperature (-2 ~-7℃) and higher wind speed, and is formed by freezing supercooled fog droplets or Leng Yun droplets on ground objects.
