Clouds are made up of really tiny water droplets. Once they build up to be heavy enough, they fall! That is what makes rain fall!

When cloud droplets combine to form larger drops they fall to earth as what?

When cloud droplets combine to form larger drops, they fall to the Earth as rain.


Why cloud do not fall on the earth?

They do. It's called rain! The beautiful transformation of ice to water to vapor/cloud!


Why do large drops of rain fall from a cumulonimbus cloud?

Large drops of rain fall from cumulonimbus clouds due to the strong updrafts within the cloud that keep precipitation suspended in the cloud until the drops become too heavy to be supported. Once the drops become too heavy, they fall to the ground as rain.


What most occur for rain to fall from a cloud?

Clouds are really water vapor and when water vapor gets heavy, water just drips down to the ground, causing rain fall.


What is a word that can go in front of the words drop fall bow and cloud?

Rain.


When drops of water in a cloud become heavy enough they fall to Earth as?

Rain or if it freezes, hail.


How can the same cumulonimbus cloud produce rain or hail?

A cumulonimbus cloud can produce rain or hail depending on the strength of updrafts within the cloud. If the updrafts are strong enough to carry water droplets high into the cloud where they freeze, hailstones may form. If the updrafts are not as strong, the water droplets will fall as rain.


Where does cloud seeding happen?

Cloud seeding is done in arid areas - where clouds might form, but not produce rain. Seeding the cloud with microscopic 'dust' - forces water droplets to form - which eventually combine and fall as rain.


What kind of clouds are rain clouds?

All clouds are rain clouds. You just have to know when the rain will rall out of them. When a clou is really grey the rain in that cloud is going to fall soon. If the cloud is white it is NOT going to rain!There You Go!AnswerAll clouds are rain clouds. You just have to know when the rain will rall out of them.

Why are rainstorms unpredictable?

Because - even if it's the 'right type of cloud' to produce rain - there's no guarantee that rain will actually fall.


What 3 types of weather have meteorologist have tried to control?

Rain, mostly. Cloud seeding is an attempt to force rain to fall.


How long does it take to form a rain cloud?

It typically takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour for a rain cloud to form, depending on the atmospheric conditions and moisture levels in the air. Cloud formation involves the condensation of water vapor into liquid water droplets, which then grow in size until they fall as rain.
