Rain can dissolve gases including pollutants as it falls through the air. In normal conditions, dissolved carbon dioxide makes rain slightly acidic. In severe cases, "acid rain" can include sulfuric acid (from sulfur dioxide) and nitric acid (from nitrogen oxides), the gases coming mainly from fossil fuel emissions.

Relief rain forms when moist air is forced to rise over a topographic barrier, such as a mountain range.

The type of clouds that form can vary, but commonly include cumulus and nimbus clouds.

What are two ways rain can form?

Rain can form through the process of condensation, where water vapor in the air cools and changes into liquid water droplets. Rain can also form through the collision and coalescence of water droplets in clouds, where smaller droplets merge together to form larger droplets that eventually fall as rain.
