I woke up at about 5:30 AM to a thin coating of ice on my windshield and car. To my surprise there was a little bit of graupel on the lower part of the windshield. When I turned an outside light on, I saw graupel mixed in with the freezing rain. The graupel was really tiny. It was like the graupel barely had time to form.
