  4. Precipitation • water that is released from clouds in the sky; includes rain, snow, sleet, hail, and freezing rain Water vapor in the atmosphere cools to form clouds. In clouds, small water droplets come together to form bigger droplets or attach to ice crystals. When the droplets or crystals become heavy, they fall to the ground as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. This is called precipitation. All images courtesy of Microsoft Clip Art and Google Images under Creative Common Licensing
