Cloud formation
temperature changes even with heat
Cooling and heating in unsaturated air is called dry adiabatic rate
If the air is saturated it cools slow then when its not saturated

Orographic lifting
Air comes when elevated terrains
mountains, act like a wall to air flow
This makes the air toAscend
Metric Mechanic - Surface Turbulance

A front
A front is mostly based on cold and warm air
cold acts as a wall As warm air is
letting warm air rise

Convergence
Convergence is lifting the air
Lifting air forms in the atmosphere
They all flow together

Localized convection lifting
Localized convection lifting comes when pockets of air form
Also when the heating's earths surface warms up
This makes the pockets density lower

Stable air tends
Air temperature increases with high
When you go on top of hill the air get colder
When you on flat ground the air is warmer Atmospheric Stability
and Instability

condensation
http://www.dreamstime.com/stock-photo-condensation-background-image1951030
When condensation comes in the air tiny bits of particulate matter
Water vapor occurs too
This is called condensation nuclei

Cloud types and precipitation
http://www.easttennesseewildflowers.com
Clouds are up high in the sky and they are thin
They may come in patches or as delicate veil
Cloud are like sheets that can cover the hole sky or most of it
![Page 10: 5fmartin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070315/55530e01b4c9054e3f8b4fa1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
High clouds
http://scienceprep.org/clouds.htm
They are often made up of ice crystals
All high clouds are thin
And white Clouds of made up
of fluffy masses
![Page 11: 5fmartin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070315/55530e01b4c9054e3f8b4fa1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Middle clouds
http://www.srh.noaa.gov/key/?n=low_clouds
Middle clouds are sheets are light gray that cover the sky, sun, and moon
They are in the middle range that’s why they are called middle clouds
They run about 2000 to 6000 meters
![Page 12: 5fmartin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070315/55530e01b4c9054e3f8b4fa1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Low clouds
They are fog like layers
This type of cloud is made when air is forced upwards
Low clouds occur along a mountain range
![Page 13: 5fmartin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070315/55530e01b4c9054e3f8b4fa1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Clouds of vertical development
These clouds my cause rain showers and thunderstorms
These clouds are powerful
They have great amount of range

Fog caused by cooling
http://www.allstar.fiu.edu/aero/fltenv3.htm
It’s a blanket of fog Its were its warm
and moist air They also can form
on cool, clear ,calm nights

Cold clouds
http://www.rmutphysics.com/charud/specialnews/6/clound/cloud_precip.htm
Water in the liquid below 0
Water will freeze if it touches a solid object
Clouds freeze nuclei , ice, and liquid water
![Page 16: 5fmartin](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070315/55530e01b4c9054e3f8b4fa1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Warm cloud
Water is a respect is to supersaturated
With will respect to ice Droplets are made
from bigger clouds
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud

Rain and snow
http://zahiym5tlc.edublogs.org/
The meaning for rain is drops of water
Snow flakes are very low temperature
Snow flakes usually melt melt before hitting ground

Sleet, glaze, and hail
http://keep3.sjfc.edu/students/scm03254/e-port/msti%20260/glossary.html
Sleet is small particles
hail is small or big pieces of Ice
Glaze covers some thing very little
