Ice crystals, which are often in high concentrations near convective weather systems and lower concentrations in stratus or cirrus clouds, can accrete within turbine engines and cause power loss when in high concentrations. Ice crystals are not typically detected by either conventional ice detectors or airborne radar, and typically do not accrete on external airframe surfaces.
Precipitation is any form of water particle, whether liquid or solid, that falls from the atmosphere and reaches the ground. The precipitation types are: drizzle (DZ), rain (RA), snow (SN), snow grains (SG), ice crystals (IC), ice pellets (PL), hail (GR), small hail and/or snow pellets (GS), and unknown precipitation (UP).
