What temperature does rain occur?
temperature isn't a factor when it comes to rain. If the atmosphere is too cold though, the rain could turn into sleet/hail/snow
Does it rain or snow in the mesosphere layer?
No, there is no precipitation above the troposphere.
The water in the atmosphere is returned to earth by?
The water is returned to earth by precipitation, which includes rain, hail, snow, drizzle.
How snow starts off as sleet?
Sleet starts as snow, then falls through a layer of the atmosphere that is above freezing whereupon it melts into rain. Finally, it falls back into colder air and refreezes as ice pellets (sleet) before reaching the ground.
Where does freezing rain occur?
Freezing rain happens when there is a layer of warmer air above a layer of sub-freezing air. The moisture passes through the warmer layer either causing it to become liquid or keeping it in liquid form. When it hits the sub-freezing level, if the layer of cold air is very thick, it will fall as sleet or snow. If it is very shallow, it will just fall as rain. But, if the layer is just think enough, the rain will pass through, be supercooled, and freeze on contact with most any surface.
Which layer of the atmosphere do you find rain snow?
Mesophere
Is the troposphere the layer of the atmosphere where rain and snow occurred?
Yes.

What occur in the nonliving part of the water cycle?
water vapor in the atmosphere condense and falls to earth surface as rain or snow
When does preciptiation occur?
Precipitation is rain or snow.
Does it rain or snow in the mesosphere layer?
No, there is no precipitation above the troposphere.
How do rain and snow remove particulates from the atmosphere?
particles freeze them
Is snow and rain associated with a high pressure area in the atmosphere?
No.
Which layer of the atmosphere provide rainwater to the planet?
The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere that provides rainwater to the planet. It is the lowest layer of the atmosphere, extending from the Earth's surface up to an altitude of about 7 to 20 kilometers (depending on location). The water vapor present in the troposphere condenses to form clouds, which then produce precipitation in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
What is the word for rain sleet hail or snow?
rain flooding
Does rain or snow occur when a cold front moves in?
yes it does
Where can mudslides occur?
in places where theres lots of rain & snow!
