drizzle

I think it means Nieselregen -- which is drizzle

Here is the definition
DRIZZLE
Slowly falling precipitation in the form of tiny water droplets with diameters less than 0.02 inches or 0.5 millimeters. It falls from stratus clouds and is often associated with low visibility and fog. It is reported as "DZ" in an observation and on the METAR.
Peer comment(s):

agree LP Schumacher : In this case, "freezing drizzle." I found several hits for "misty rain," as well, but the sites that came up on my search for "freezing drizzle" were more formal/scientific.
