What cloud makes snow?
there are no certain clouds that "make" snow, it depends on the wheather. For instance.... evaporation happens, then when the cloud drops the load of water it "could" be snow sleet hail or rain. Like I said it depends on the wheather! 2. Snow bearing clouds (that are actually precipitating) commonly do not have a well defined margin.
Can cirrus clouds form snow?
Cirrus clouds are high enough to be at a low enough temperature for the water droplets to form into ice crystals. However, Cirrus clouds are not precipitation clouds, so no snow or rain can fall from them. The clouds that can cause snow to fall in the right conditions are Nimbostratus and Cumulonimbus clouds.
What happens before it snow?
there are clouds that cover the sky
What is insolation changed into potential energy by?

When do clouds contain snow?
clouds contain rain when too much water evaporates into the cloud and it falls back to earth. snow is the same thing, except it happens in below freezing temperatures.
What do Nimbus clouds produce?
Nimbus clouds usually produce precipitation. When this precipitation hits the surface of the earth, it can appear as hail, snow, hail, and rain.
Are clouds required for snow?
yes. clouds are formed by water. what makes snow? FROZEN WATER!!! so yes you need clouds to have snow
What happens when air from the sea hits a high mountain?
It depends on several things, but usually it's forced upwards. As it rises, the air gets colder. As it gets colder the moisture in the air condenses, first into clouds, then possibly into rain or snow.
Why is snow not warm?
snow is cold because its made of COLD WATER. Snow happens when its freezing outside, and so is in the clouds. Then, the water inside of the clouds freezes, but not too much (it would be a hail storm then) and when its time to rain, instead of raining, its snowing. and that's why snow isn't warm.
