What else can I help you with?
What falls but never hit the ground?
The temperature.
What determines whether precipitation falls a rain or snow?
The temperature of the air near the ground is the main factor in determining whether precipitation falls as rain or snow. If the temperature is above freezing, the precipitation will fall as rain. If the temperature is below freezing, the precipitation will fall as snow.
Does rain fall when the air temperature is coldest?
Not necessarily. Rain can fall when the air temperature is above freezing. The temperature at the surface where rain falls can be higher than the coldest layer of air above.
What physical property is instrumental in the change from rain to sleet?
The key physical property involved in the change from rain to sleet is temperature. When the temperature of the air near the ground is above freezing, precipitation falls as rain. If the temperature drops below freezing as the precipitation falls, the rain can freeze and turn into sleet before reaching the ground.
How cold is rain when it falls from the sky?
Rainfall is typically around the same temperature as the surrounding air when it falls from the sky.
What precipitation falls at 3C?
At a temperature of 3°C, precipitation typically falls as rain. However, if the temperature is close to freezing and conditions are right, it could also fall as sleet or freezing rain, especially if there is a layer of warmer air above a cold surface. Snow is less likely at this temperature but can occur if the temperature drops slightly or if the atmospheric conditions are suitable.
What is the percentage of rain that falls back to earth?
100% of rain falls to Earth. That is the definition of rain. Precipitation.
When was The Rain Before It Falls created?
The Rain Before It Falls was created in 2007.
What form of precipitation falls to earth mainly depends on the?
What form of precipitation falls to earth mainly depends on the?
Is there rain or snow that falls on Mars?
Neither snow nor rain falls on Mars.
What falls in winter?
lots of things fall in winter like the temperature, rain, snow, sleet and the amount of time the sun is up.
What type of precipitation falls when the temperature is above 32 degree Fahrenheit or 0 degree Celsius?
Rain is all I can find and think of
