Condensation, in this case called Rainfall, occurs where warm and cold Air Masses meet; because when these two Masses meet, the Cold Air Mass hugs the Earth's Surface while the Warm Air Mass is 'forced' to rise up above the Cold Air Mass.
As regards Our Atmosphere, Meteorology is the study of Weather [not Meteors]; and it has an Rule that is as amazing as it is Unique: "Where-ever and When-ever you see Clouds forming you know that Air is rising [at that location]".
This is because - "Where-ever a parcel of Air rises, its Pressure is reduced as it rises in Altitude, its volume is expanded because of the decreased Pressure, and {see Refrigeration} its latent temperature decreases".
Condensation occurs in areas where the H2O 'laden' Air is cooled: as in a Scientific Test Flask for example.

Does condensation of water vapor occur when air gets warmer?
No. Condensation will occur when they air gets cooler.
What may occur as water vapor cools in the atmosphere?
condensation
Why are condensation and saturation more likely to occur on a cold day than on a warm day?
Saturation and condensation are more likely to occur on a cold day. The temperature in the air is increased by the process of moisture condensation.Ê
In which process does water form clouds?
Well there there needs to be heat for evaporation to occur, once this evaporated water hits a high enough altitude it condensates to form clouds.
What two processes must occur for a hurricane to form over the ocean?
Evaporation and Condensation. Hoped it helped!
Does condensation of water vapor occur when air gets warmer?
No. Condensation will occur when they air gets cooler.
How are evaporation and condensation connected to the water cycle in nature?
Condensation occur after evaporation.
Is condensation the same as cooling?
No it is not. Condensation does occur on the evaporator in an air conditioning system.
Does condensation occur on water surfaces?
Condensation may or may not occur on water surfaces. Water vapors cool down and condenses.
Before condensation can occur what must be the relative humidity?
It must be 100% before condensation.
Why does condensation occur when moist air rises?
Condensation may occur when moist air rises because of the different arrangement of water molecules.
When you take a cold can of juice outof the refrigerator on a hot day will condensation or evaporation occur?
Both, but condensation first.
Does condensation precipitation and evaporation occur in the stratosphere?
No
Why does condensation occur in the kitchen?
Because your a woman
What is required in order for petrifaction to occur?
Condensation
Which sphere does condensation mostly occur?
atmosphere
Which processes occur during distillation?
condensation
