Snow Pellets
From Fiswiki

Ice pellets or Snow Pellets commonly occur with other crystal forms near the freezing point
Frozen precipitation in the form of white, round or conical opaque grains of ice. Their diameter ranges from 0.08 to 0.2 inch (2 to 5 mm). They are easily crushed and generally break up after rebounding from a hard surface, unlike hail. Sometimes it is called small or soft hail.
