The two main categories of seismic waves are body waves and
surface waves. Body waves can travel through the earth's inner
layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the
Earth.

All forms of water that fall from the clouds are called
precipitation. Precipitation includes things like rain, snow, hail
and sleet. It is caused when water trapped in the clouds is
released due to an inability to keep it floating.
