What would you have to do to warm moist air to make a cloud?
Cool it. The moisture in the air condenses to form a cloud when it is cooled. Eventually the moisture droplets are big enough to start to precipitate to form rain. You see your cloud of breath when you walk outside on a cold day and the moisture in your breath condenses to form a visible cloud.
Is there moisture in tornado?
Yes. There is moisture in a tornado. The air a tornado pulls in has been moistened by rain. This moisture condenses to form the visible funnel cloud.
What forms contrail clouds?
Contrails are formed from the moisture in the exhaust of an airplane. The moisture condenses or crystallizes to form a visible cloud.
Is it true that condensation is any form of moisture that falls to the ground from a cloud?
No... that would be PRECIPITATION
Which weather term defines any type of moisture falling from a cloud in frozen or a liquid form?
Precipitation.
What does every cloud have?
Moisture.
How does a wall cloud form?
A wall cloud forms when the rotating updraft of a supercell thunderstorm, called a mesocyclone, draws in moist air and causes the moisture to condense. The wall cloud marks the strongest part of the mesocyclone.
How do Stratocumulus clouds occur?
Of warm moisture and cool moisture giving the cloud.
Can A Tornado Happen With No Clouds?
No, it can not happen. You will always need a cloud to form a tornado. The kind of cloud that a tornado uses is a cumulonimbus cloud.
What causes thunderstorming?
A thunderstorm is a cloud formation where large amounts of water undergoes a cycle of condensation, freezing then revaporizating as the currents of vapor within the cloud rises and falls. This produces static electricity which discharges as lightning. Thunderstorms are caused by a collision of warm air and cold air.
When does a tornado's funnel cloud form?
The funnel cloud forms ins the very early stages as the vortex descends below cloud base. It pulls in moist air, and the pressure drop in side it cools the air, causing the moisture to condense.
What makes a funnel cloud?
A funnel cloud forms when the vortex of a developing tornado draws in moist air. As the air enters the vortex it undergoes a pressure drop, which in turn produce a temperature drop. This causes the moisture to condense and form a funnel cloud.
