By way of an open watershed
When precipitation infiltrates the ground there is a possibility of flooding.
Precipitation that soaks into the ground trickles down due to gravity. Water moves through the soil and eventually reaches the water table or flows towards bodies of water like rivers and lakes.
The process by which water evaporates from the Earth's surface, forms clouds in the atmosphere, and eventually falls back to the ground as precipitation is called the water cycle. This cycle involves evaporation, condensation, and precipitation, and it is a continuous natural process that helps distribute water around the planet.
A direct source of precipitation is the condensation of water vapor in the atmosphere that falls to the ground as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. This process occurs when the air cools and reaches its dew point, causing the moisture to form into visible droplets or ice crystals that then precipitate.
Precipitation that sinks into the ground is called Groundwater.
The process where clouds release precipitation in the form of rain is called precipitation or rain formation. It occurs when water droplets in a cloud combine to form larger droplets that eventually become heavy enough to fall to the ground as rain.
precipitation is the water that soaks downward due to the ground trickles
A runoff is precipitatoin soaks into the ground, precipitation can also run over the ground and flow into streams, rivers, lakes, and eventually the ocean.
The transition from cloud to soil involves precipitation, where water droplets in the cloud combine to form larger droplets and eventually fall to the ground as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Once the precipitation reaches the soil, it can infiltrate into the ground, replenishing groundwater reserves and providing moisture for plant growth.

Precipitation that evaporates before reaching the ground is called virga. It appears as wispy streaks or shafts of precipitation falling from the cloud but not reaching the surface. Virga is a common occurrence in arid regions where the lower atmosphere is dry.
