Precipitation
Precipitation is any form of water that falls from clouds to Earth such as rain, snow, sleet, and hail. When it falls it is called precipitation. When it falls layers get heavier by the drops raindrops. Water falls from clouds to the ground as precipitation. Some precipitation soaks into the ground. Some falls into the ocean, rivers, and lakes.


 * Forms of Precipitation**

Precipitation in the form of rain fell to the ground at Choptank Elementary School.

Water vapor condensed into clouds and turned back into tiny drops of water. After the water drops formed clouds, more and more water drops joined together. The water drops became heavier until they fell to the Earth in the form of rain.
