The water eventually condenses again as it reaches cold air. After this happens, it often precipitates and falls to the ground, where the cycle begins once again. If you require a more in-depth explanation, here it is. The vapor rises into the air where cooler temperatures cause it to condense into clouds. Air currents move clouds around the globe, cloud particles collide, grow, and fall out of the sky as precipitation. Some precipitation falls as snow and can accumulate as ice caps and glaciers, which can store frozen water for thousands of years. Snowpacks in warmer climates often thaw and melt when spring arrives, and the melted water flows overland as snowmelt. Most precipitation falls back into the oceans or onto land, where, due to gravity, the precipitation flows over the ground as surface runoff. A portion of runoff enters rivers in valleys in the landscape, with streamflow moving water towards the oceans.

∙ 14y agoFrom wiki "Evaporation is caused when water is exposed to air and the liquid molecules turn into water vapor which rises up and forms clouds". This is because water vapor is lighter than air.
The clouds then hold the water until a temperature drop causes the water to condense into droplets, which then are heavier than air and fall to the earth.

Is rain falling from the sky an example of diffusion?
No.
What are rain snow sleet and hail example of?
cold things that fall out of the sky while its winter
When snow is falling from the sky what is it called?
Snow falling from the sky is called snow. THe act of snow falling is called snowing.
Does rain fall from the sky or clouds?
CloudsThe rain comes from the clouds which has water in the form of water vapour .These water vapour condenses due to low temperature in the atmosphere and come to earth as rain or in any other way of precipitation
How does snow work?
That was a quinny answer. Snow works by falling form the sky and it landing. If its cold the clouds will drop the rain and it will turn into snow on the way down>
Can rain reproduce?
No. Rain is simply water falling from the sky.
Is rain falling from the sky an example of diffusion?
No.
What is precipitatio?
precipitation is water falling from the sky, such as rain, sleet, hail, and snow
When it rains what is falling from the sky?
Rain Drops....(Water)
Is rain a living organism?
No, rain is just condensation that happeneds to be falling from the sky. It's water.
What is unique about rain?
It is liquid water falling from the sky. What else do you know that does that? How is it NOT unique?
Does the rain fall downwards?
yes, which is why you see if falling to the ground (below you) from the sky (above you)

If you spit off of the Empire State Building will it go through someones skull?
No more likely than when rain falls from the sky. A little grosser perhaps, but no more dangerous than falling rain.
Clouds are very high in the sky but the rain-drops falling from the clouds havelow velocities as they reach the ground.?
the reason why is because of the shape and weight if the rain drop. the weight of a rain drop is less than a gram and the shape of one when falling from the sky, has a lot of drag. this means that the terminal velocity of a rain drop is very slow
Is a rain drop falling from the sky a free fall?
