Paragraph on “The Making of Rain and Snow” complete paragraph for Class 9, Class 10, Class 11 and Class 12

The Making of Rain and Snow

Water constantly evaporates into the air from seas, lakes, rivers and is also released by plants, animals and human beings. Warm air rising upwards into the Atmosphere, carries with it the evaporated water vapour. 1 As the air rises it comes into contact with colder air which condenses the water vapour to form drops of water or ice crystals. Clouds are formed as a result of this action. As time passes the clouds accumulate a lot of water and become heavy. Since they are unable to hold the water, it falls to the ground in the shape of ‘Rain’. If the clouds are located over mountains where the air is very cold, then the water freezes to form ice crystals which stick together and fall to the ground as ‘Snow’. Water also freezes in clouds located at a high altitude to form small round lumps of ice, called `Hailstones’ which often fall to the ground when it is raining. It does not rain evenly on all parts of the Earth, we have little or no rain in the deserts and excessive rain in the Equatorial regions.
