     • When air cools down the water vapour condenses from a gas into a liquid and forms tiny water droplets. Water droplets gather to form clouds. The water droplets get bigger and heavier. The air can't hold them up any longer. The water droplets fall down to the ground as rain. Rain is part of the water cycle.

   How does the rain cycle work?

   • The sun shines on the sea water and heats it. The causes the water to evaporate and rise as water vapour. Once the water vapour reaches high in the sky, it condenses and forms clouds. These clouds are blown towards land by wind. The clouds precipitate over the land as rainfall. This cycle repeats itself. This is called a rain cycle.

   How do clouds get rain?

   • To get rain, the water condensing in the clouds has to become heavy enough to fall to Earth. The tiny droplets just aren't heavy enough to fall. Just like fog or in the shower, they go whichever way the wind and eddy currents blow them, or they just hang there, suspended in the air. To become heavier, the droplets need to grow into drops.

   Is rain a form of precipitation?

   • Rain is one form of what we call ‘precipitation’. Precipitation is any weather where water falls from the sky: It could be sleet, hail, snow or rain. When the water is a liquid we call it rain. Raindrops are not tear-shaped like we often see in cartoons and pictures.

   Why does this area have only a little rain?

   • This air is drier than it was before it lost water as rain, so any clouds left will evaporate again, leaving clear skies. This area has only a little rain because the cloud making process isn't working. Because there is so little rain, the area is said to be in a 'rain shadow'.

   What happens when a rain forming process starts?

   • 4) The rain forming process starts, and usually leads to very heavy rain, perhaps with thunder and lightening. Convectional rain is often experienced at the end of a hot summer day and associated with torrential downpours with large drops and towering dark grey clouds.

   Will it rain if the wind blows back into the clouds?

   • Some may get caught in upward blowing winds and get blown back into the clouds for a while, but once they are heavy enough to overcome the force of the wind, they will fall to earth - as rain! It will keep raining as long as the conditions are right to make the clouds and let the water droplets grow heavy enough to fall.

   Sep 11, 2024 · The Short Answer: What causes rain? Clouds are made of water droplets. Within a cloud, water droplets condense onto one another, causing the droplets to grow. When these water droplets get too heavy to stay suspended in the cloud, they fall to Earth as rain. Come to think of it, what makes it snow, hail, and sleet?

   Depending on atmospheric conditions and temperatures, precipitation can arrive on Earth as rain, hail, sleet, freezing rain, or snow. When water falls back to Earth as precipitation, it ends up in rivers, lakes, oceans, swimming pools, rain barrels, bird baths, and lots of other places.
