When bits of crystals form in clouds, they may fall to the ground as snowflakes or ice crystals, depending on the temperature and atmospheric conditions. If the crystals accumulate and become heavy enough, they can also form sleet or hail. The specific form that the precipitation takes is influenced by factors such as humidity, temperature, and the vertical movement of air within the cloud.
What else can I help you with?
Do clouds condense and fall as rain?
Yes, clouds form when water vapor in the air condenses into water droplets or ice crystals. When these droplets or crystals become too heavy to stay aloft, they fall as precipitation, such as rain.
What caused the clouds to collapse?
Clouds don't really collapse but they do 'fall' from the sky as rain. You see clouds are made from water vapour that evaporate from the sea forming clouds and think how do they fall the fall by rain the water vapour creates water droplets and it's too heavy so they fall by rain
What factor in clouds control snowflake formation?
There isn't a factor in clouds that control snowflake formation.Wet snow: water droplets and ice crystals form. Ice crystals grow. Ice crystals combine and form snowflakes. Snowflakes begin to melt. Dry snow:water droplets and ice crystals form. Ice crystals grow. Ice crystals combine snowflakes. Snowflakes fall without melting.
What causes clouds to precipitate?
Clouds precipitate when water droplets or ice crystals within the cloud grow large enough to overcome the forces keeping them aloft, such as updrafts. Once the droplets or crystals become too heavy, they fall out of the cloud as precipitation, such as rain or snow.
Large water droplets that fall out of clouds?
Those are raindrops, formed when water vapor in the clouds condenses and combines into larger droplets that become heavy enough to fall to the ground.
When bits of ice crystals form in clouds they may fall to the ground as?
Cocaine.
In the wintertime why don't entire clouds freeze and fall to the ground?
In winter entire clouds don't freeze and fall to the ground because the air they are floating in is warming than the air on the ground. In addition some clouds are already made of very tiny ice crystals which are light enough to float.
Why don't clouds fall back down to the ground?
Clouds do not fall back down to the ground because they are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals that are lighter than the air around them. These droplets and crystals are constantly moving and being carried by air currents, which keeps the clouds suspended in the sky.
Does rain come from a sweating cloud?
No. Rain comes from clouds, but the clouds do not sweat. Clouds are made of water droplets, ice crystals, or a combination of the two. Rain falls when ice crystals grow inside a cloud, melt, and fall to the ground.
How is rain associated with clouds?
Rain is associated with clouds because precipitation occurs when water droplets or ice crystals in clouds become large enough to fall to the ground. Clouds are formed by water vapor in the air condensing into tiny water droplets or ice crystals, which then gather together to form clouds. When these droplets or crystals grow too heavy to stay aloft, they fall as rain.
What's the difference between snow and frost?
Frost is a form of deposition and requires a surface (on the ground) to form its ice crystals. Snow can only form in clouds - the ice crystals grow around condensation nuclei and then fall to the ground. Frost is confined to the ground.
Does snow come from clouds?
Yes, snow forms when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into ice crystals within clouds. These ice crystals then join together to form snowflakes, which fall to the ground when they become heavy enough.
Formation of precipitation in cold clouds is called?
Formation of precipitation in cold clouds is called nucleation and involves the process of tiny water droplets freezing into ice crystals. These ice crystals grow in size as they collide with other ice crystals or water droplets, eventually becoming heavy enough to fall to the ground as precipitation.
Why does precipitation fall from the clouds?
Precipitation falls from the clouds when water droplets or ice crystals within the clouds combine and grow heavy enough to overcome the upward force of air currents. This causes the droplets or crystals to fall to the ground in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
Do clouds condense and fall as rain?
Yes, clouds form when water vapor in the air condenses into water droplets or ice crystals. When these droplets or crystals become too heavy to stay aloft, they fall as precipitation, such as rain.

This weekend water will freeze on ice pellets in the clouds and make crystals which will join to other crystals?
This process describes the formation of snow in clouds. Water vapor freezes onto ice pellets, forming ice crystals that can join together to create larger snowflakes. These snowflakes eventually become heavy enough to fall to the ground as snow.
