When it's humid the air holds a lot of water vapor but when it's cold what happens to the water vapor?

nothing "happens" 2 the water vapor. the vast amount of water vapor in the air on a humid day as exactly bcoz its so hot. the water is drawn out of sources which holds it. but when its cold that water isn't drawn out


What happens to the vapor in the air when it get cold?

I think as it gets cooler it can hold less water vapor....

Cold, dry air from Canada picks up water vapor over Great Lakes . What happens to this vapor after that?

it turns into oxygen


when water vapor gets cold it turns into a?

When water vapor gets cold it condenses into condensation.


Where is the least of the water vapor in the atmosphere found?

The least would be in cold, dry areas. Cold air can hold much less moisture than warm air. Therefore, polar regions would have the least amount of water vapor.


What happen to the water vapor when it cools?

when water vapor cools a process called condensation occurs. It happens on a cold surface where the water vapor cools and condenses to form water on the cold surface. A common example of this is breathing onto a window and it fogs up.


What happens when water vapor rises higher and higher into the sky?

The concentration of water vapor in the atmosphere decreases as altitude increases. Most planes fly near the tropopause since there's less water vapor and, therefore, weather there.


Why do clouds usually form high in the atmosphere instead of near Earth's surface?

Because the earth isn't cold enough and is not meant for the water vapor to turn to liquid near it, and water vapor rises until it turns to rain.


What is mist made of?

Mist is formed by fine droplets of water in the atmosphere near the earth and commonly occurs when cold air rises above warmer water. Mist causes a haze that can blur the vision.


Why does cold water wet glasses?

Water vapor in the air searches and sticks to cold areas. Therefore, a lot of water vapor grouping together will form water.


Why is there only a small percentage of water vapour in the atmosphere today?

Today??? It's cold (vapor pressure is lower) and clear (the air has shed [rain or warmed up] some of the water vapor it contained when it came in off the Pacific ocean0.
