    The criteria for this warning vary from state to state, but typically an ice storm warning will be issued any time more than 1 ⁄ 4 inch (6.4 mm) of ice at peak is expected to accumulate in an area, else a freezing rain or drizzle advisory is issued; in some areas, the criterion is 1 ⁄ 2 inch (13 mm) instead.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frozen_food

    Fluidized bed freezing is a variant of air-blast freezing where pelletized food is blown by fast-moving cold air from below, forming a fluidized bed. The small size of the food combined with the fast-flowing air provides good heat transfer and therefore quicker freezing. Contact freezing uses physical contact other than air to transfer the heat.
