Water droplets form in the cloud and get pushed upward, where temperatures are colder. Hail: The balls of ice that fall from clouds and can even put dents in cars are known as hail. Rain can start as water droplets or ice crystals in a cloud but always falls as liquid water. Rain: Rain made of liquid water droplets falls when temperatures in the air and at the surface are above freezing (32☏, 0☌). The temperature of the cloud and the air between the cloud and the ground create different kinds of precipitation. Rain and snow are probably the most well known types of precipitation, but there are others.
Precipitation: Water falls in a liquid or solid state. Transpiration: Water from plants turns to gas.Ĭondensation: Gas cools and turns to liquid water or ice.ĭroplets condense on particles in the air, creating a cloud. Precipitation is one of four main parts of the water cycle. The water cycle is what moves Earth’s water around the planet to places where plants, animals and humans can use it. This water might be in a liquid or solid state. Precipitation happens when water falls down to Earth’s surface. When you see rain or snow fall from above, you’re watching precipitation in action! Where does precipitation come from and why does it fall in different forms? Liquid or Solid
