What is condensation?

• The process of water vapor cooling and changing back into liquid water, forming clouds or dew.

• The process of water evaporating into vapor due to heat.

• The process of ice melting into water due to temperature increase.

• The process of water being absorbed by soil and plants.

What is a weather front?

• A type of storm that occurs in winter.

• A boundary between two different air masses, which can lead to changes in weather.
