Types of weather Sunny snowy Cloudy Windy Rainy Stormy

Parts of the water cycle Evaporation: when water turns into a vapor and rises Condensation: when water vapor condenses back into a liquid Precipitation: when condensed water falls from the sky Parts of the water cycle

Parts of the water cycle continued Accumulation: when water from the runoff collects and comes together and forms a lake, ocean, or pond Runoff: when the water from the mountains forms little streams which then they form rivers. Infiltration: when water from the runoff seeps into the ground and into the ocean and lakes

Rain can fall from anywhere sometimes rain can fall for a while Sometimes rain won’t fall for a very long time If rain falls for too long it can cause flash floods which is dangerous Here is an example of a flash flood http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=play er_detailpage&v=kYUpkPTcqPY

Different types of precipitation continued Snow: a solid form of rain that mainly falls during the winter it is cold and light. Sleet: a snow like substance but once it touches the air from below it will melt and turn into a mixture of water and snow. this only during the winter and only melts if the ground is above freezing temperatures.

Different types of precipitation It’s not just rain that falls from the sky there is also hail, snow, sleet, fog, mist, and dew Hail: a solid form of rain and is formed by a small piece of dust or anything that size that collects moisture from the air during a storm then is turned into a solid by the cold air from above.
