Steam, as in water steam, is formed when water reaches over the boiling point (100 degrees centigrade). The water will start to evaporate, to make water vapour, and then join the air particles in the air. Whenever there is a cold surface nearby, (such as a window) the water vapour will hit the surface and then condense (turn back into a liquid). Condensing is a process where the water vapour is cooled down to make a liquid. This process is sometimes recognised as boiling and condensing.
