It forms when water from lakes oceans rivers moist plants or soil condenses in a low lying cloud?

This could apply to any low-level cloud. If the cloud is at ground level it is called fog.


Compared to cloud fogs are?

Clouds occur when water condenses high in the air. Fog occurs when water condenses at ground level. Fog also occurs when the ground is colder than the air moving over it.


What is cloud called at ground level?

Fog


What temperature does the air need to be for it to snow?

The air at ground level or the air at the altitude where the snow forms? Snow forms in clouds and then falls. Therefore it can be and usually is warmer at ground level than in the clouds...Answer...water moisture freezes at 0° C or 32° F so it would have to be freezing in the clouds where the snow forms.


Does freezing rain fall as liquid and then freeze upon contact at the ground level?

It can be the case. That type of weather is terrible for driving and outside work. Sleet is rain that freezes on the way to the ground. The typical scenario for freezing rain is an atmospheric temperature of just above freezing and a ground temperature below freezing. If the rain itself is just above freezing, hitting the ground causes instant ice. Planes have a similar problem when flying. Temperature goes down about 4 degrees every thousand feet of altitude. If a plane hits those same conditions it will start picking up ice by passing through clouds or rain that is near freezing. In a matter of minutes a plane can become too heavy to fly.

At what temperature does rain convert to snow?

Most precipitation that reaches the ground actually begins as snow high in the atmosphere. These snow flakes develop somewhere above the freezing level where the air temperature is less than 32 F and begin to fall toward the earth as snow. If ground temperature is above 32 F( the freezing level must be located somewhere above the ground). The falling snow passes through the freezing level into the warmer air, where it melts and changes to rain before reaching the ground.

Snow forms when the atmospheric temperature is at or below freezing and there is enough moisture in the air. But the temperature at the ground level may be warmer, sometimes above freezing.
