[edit] ABSOLUTY AGAINST MOVING THIS ARTICLE

This article is about Freezing rain not Ice storms. Terefore it is about a type of precipitations. The same way RAIN and SNOW have their own article, freezing rain HAS to REMAIN on its own. Pierre_cb 2005-04-28 19:30 UTC.

I agree. It's about a specific phenomenon and I can see no advantage to merging into a far broader article. Worldtraveller 00:49, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Merged, maybe. Into Storm, no. If we want to do any merging, then we should take all the different articles on PRECIPITATION (including this one) and merge them together. I have no opinion, personally, on whether this merging should take place or not, but if it is done, then all precipitation articles (rain, snow, sleet, wintry showers, hail, graupel, and freezing rain) should be merged into one article on precipitation.

[edit] FZRA should be merged into Freezing rain

A one-line entry. If METAR codes are notable, they should be in the entry for the weather conditions they describe -- it would be literally a one-sentence addition! -- Michael Bauser 20:35, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
