Falling pellets (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sleet

'falling pellets' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sleet that I've seen before include "Snowy rain" , "Precipitate evolution" , "Partly melted falling snow or hail" , "Partly frozen rain" , "Mixture of rain and snow" .)

I've seen this clue in the Family Time, the Newsday, The Washington Post and the Newsday.com.
