CONDENSATION
As the water vapor rises into the atmosphere, it cools and condenses to form tiny water droplets. These droplets come together to create clouds.
DEW POINT
is a critical concept in meteorology and refers to the temperature at which air becomes saturated with moisture and water vapor begins to condense into liquid water or dew.

Transpiration: On land, plants and trees absorb water from the ground through their roots. They release water vapor through tiny pores called stomata in a process known as transpiration.
Evaporation: The cycle begins with the heating of water bodies such as oceans, lakes, and rivers by the sun's energy. This heat causes water to change from its liquid state to water vapor or steam through a process called evaporation.
PRECIPITATION
When the cloud droplets become large enough, they fall to the Earth's surface in the form of precipitation, which includes rain, snow, sleet, or hail.:
HUMIDITY
is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the air.
Water Cycle
Water movement between the surface of Earth and Atmosphere.
TYPES OF PRESIPITATION
- Rain: is liquid water droplets that fall from the sky when the air temperature is above freezing (0°C or 32°F).
- Snow: consists of ice crystals that form in cold air when the temperature is below freezing.
- Sleet: also known as ice pellets, is small, frozen raindrops or water droplets that freeze before reaching the ground.
- Hail: is precipitation in the form of ice pellets or balls that can range in size from small pellets to large stones. Hailstones form within severe thunderstorms when updrafts carry raindrops into extremely cold upper levels of the atmosphere, causing them to freeze and grow in size before falling to the ground.
Freezing Rain: occurs when rain falls in liquid form and then encounters a layer of cold air near or at the surface, causing it to freeze upon contact with surfaces such as roads, trees, and power lines. It can create dangerous icy conditions known as "black ice." Hail: is precipitation in the form of ice pellets or balls that can range in size from small pellets to large stones. Hailstones form within severe thunderstorms when updrafts carry raindrops into extremely cold upper levels of the atmosphere, causing them to freeze and grow in size before falling to the ground.
Precipitation: When the cloud droplets become large enough, they fall to the Earth's surface in the form of precipitation, which includes rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
Cycle
any series of events that repeat in the same order over and over again
RELATIVE HUMIDITY
Is the % of water vapor in the air comparated to maximum amont of water the air can hold a particular temperature.
Measuring Presipitation
Rain Gauge: is an open ended tube that collect rain, the amount of rain is measured either by dipping a ruler into a water in the tube or by reading a scale printed on the tube. Snowfall is measuredin two ways: By using simple measuring strick By melting collected snow ande measuring the depth water it produces.
Condensation: As the water vapor rises into the atmosphere, it cools and condenses to form tiny water droplets. These droplets come together to create clouds.
Evaporation
The cycle begins with the heating of water bodies such as oceans, lakes, and rivers by the sun's energy. This heat causes water to change from its liquid state to water vapor or steam through a process.
