Precipitation

Water that falls from the clouds towards the ground.
What it includes: Rain, hail, sleet, or snow.

💡 Fun Facts

  • Precipitation happens when the water droplets in a cloud get so big and heavy that the air can't hold them up any more.
  • Raindrops aren't always tear-shaped! Small ones are perfectly round, while larger ones get flattened on the bottom as they fall.
  • Not all rain reaches the ground; some evaporates on the way down, in a phenomenon called 'virga'.
