Default Freezing Rain

The local forecast was talking at length about freezing rain
this evening, and how unusual it is, so I am assuming that it
is to be of the genuine 'supercooled' varity, rather than
just 'normal' rain making cold surfaces slippery.

So what makes freezing rain fall at temperatures when
one would normaly expect snow?
