Not really. In the winter, whether it's raining or snowing, there is snow in the clouds - if it's raining at the surface that means the snow has melted before it reached the ground. There are different processes for the formation of rain and snow in a cloud, but you wouldn't be able to tell by looking at a cloud whether it contains rain or snow.
Nimbostratus clouds...
I believe this question was intended to be: "Do cumulonimbus and nimbostratus clouds produce rain or snow?" The answer to this question is: "Yes, both types of clouds CAN produce precipitation, including rain and/or snow, depending on the temperature in the atmosphere."
The scientific name for stratus rain clouds is "nimbostratus." These clouds are low, thick clouds that often bring continuous rain or snow.
Clouds just collect water, they precipitate (rain) when there is a large amount of water in the clouds, so the clouds that you don't see rain are clouds that have collected water but not enough to precipitate.
The five main types of precipitation are rain, snow, sleet, hail, and drizzle. Rain is liquid water falling from clouds, snow is frozen water crystals, sleet is a mix of rain and ice pellets, hail is ice pellets falling from thunderstorms, and drizzle is very light rain.
ANSWER:Sleet is frozen rain.
Rain, snow, and hail are all types of precipitation. Rain is liquid water falling from clouds, snow is frozen water vapor that falls in flakes, and hail is frozen raindrops that are larger and formed in thunderstorms.
rain: the clouds collect eough water from the ocean to the clouds and the clouds get too heavy and have to fall down. hail: the water from the clouds get frozen and turn into snow
Rain is liquid water droplets falling from clouds, while snow is frozen water crystals that fall from clouds in colder temperatures.
True. Frozen rain and snow are both formed from frozen water droplets, although they have distinct formation processes. Frozen rain, also known as sleet, occurs when raindrops freeze before reaching the ground. Snow forms when water vapor in the atmosphere freezes directly into ice crystals.
No, snow and rain are two different forms of precipitation. Snow falls as frozen ice crystals, while rain falls as liquid water droplets. Snow forms when the temperature is cold enough for water vapor to freeze before it reaches the ground, whereas rain forms when water droplets combine and fall from clouds.
Snow is frozen raindrops.
When it gets too cold to rain, the humidity stored in the clouds become tiny almost soft flakes that hit the ground. All snow is is pure awesomness provided by frozen rain
Snow is frozen water vapor that falls as precipitation in the form of small ice crystals. Rain is liquid water that falls from clouds and is formed when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into droplets that become heavy enough to fall to the ground.
Nimbostratus clouds...
In Earth, the clouds has rain, snow, and hail. But in Neptune, they clouds doesn't has snow or hail.
a combination of rain and snow together is called "snaine"
