Answer 1

Rain. Since it is 16 degrees C it is almost 100% sure to be rain. Too warm for sleet, which is possible around, you can guess, 0 C or 32 F (sleet can be formed when surface T is around 5 C, this may variate.

Answer 2

Jenny is most likely seeing sleet dued to the fact it must be 32 degrees Fahrenheit to freeze and turn into a solid snow/ ice.
