In the wintertime why don't entire clouds freeze and fall to the ground?

In winter entire clouds don't freeze and fall to the ground because the air they are floating in is warming than the air on the ground. In addition some clouds are already made of very tiny ice crystals which are light enough to float.

Why water vapor is important to weather production?
Water vapor is important because it creates clouds and it's water molecules combine to form water droplets that can either fall to the ground as rain, or freeze and fall to the ground as sleet, snow, or hail.
How do clouds break into smaller clouds?
More water forms from th ground and they seperate.
How do snowflakes stick to the ground?
The ground freezes, then the ground in cold enough for the snowflakes to freeze to it.
Why do clouds come down to the ground sometimes?
Because they want to!
Stratus clouds at ground level are known as?
its known as fog
what happens when clouds are full of water?
When clouds get so full of water droplets that they can't hold any more, the water falls back to the ground as rain! Sometimes the water droplets freeze and fall to the ground as snow, sleet, or hail. Water or ice that comes from clouds is called precipitation.
What are clouds called that are close to the ground or on the ground?
the answer is fog..To be mo scientific its called Stratus clouds.
How many miles are stratus clouds from the ground?
I'm pretty sure that it is about 6 miles from the ground to the clouds
Are stratus clouds or cirrus clouds closer to the ground?
yes
How do ground level clouds form?
The moisture in the ground combines with the the air to make water vapor, therefore creating clouds at ground level.
When does the troposphere get colder?
The troposphere - the atmosphere layer closest to earth, down to ground level - gets coldest in the wintertime.
Are stratus clouds or cirrus clouds found closer to the ground?
yes
Why water vapor is important to weather production?
Water vapor is important because it creates clouds and it's water molecules combine to form water droplets that can either fall to the ground as rain, or freeze and fall to the ground as sleet, snow, or hail.
A patch of ground in direct sunlight will have what a patch of ground shaded by clouds?
A lower air pressure than a patch of ground shaded by clouds :)
Are stratus clouds low clouds?
Yes. Aside from fog (which is at ground level) stratus clouds are the lowest-lying of all clouds.
Is frost clouds near the ground?
No.
Clouds on the ground?
Fog or mist.
