  1. 2. — the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor, rising into the atmosphere
  2. 4. — water that flows over the land surface toward rivers, streams, and oceans, often after rainfall
  3. 7. Rain — rain that is more acidic than normal due to pollutants in the atmosphere, particularly sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides
  4. 10. Clouds — puffy, white clouds with flat bases that often indicate fair weather or the possibility of thunderstorms
  5. 13. — precipitation consisting of rain and snow mixed together, or frozen raindrops
  6. 14. — the slow movement of water through soil and rock layers underground
  7. 16. Pressure — the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on Earth's surface; changes in pressure often indicate changing weather conditions
  8. 17. — a prolonged period of abnormally low rainfall, leading to a shortage of water

  1. 1. Clouds — low, gray, layered clouds that often cover the entire sky and may produce light rain or drizzle
  2. 3. — the process by which water vapor cools and changes back into liquid water, forming clouds
  3. 5. — the boundary between two air masses with different temperatures and humidity levels, often bringing rain or storms
  4. 6. — a seasonal wind pattern that brings heavy rainfall to certain regions during specific times of the year
  5. 8. Clouds — tall, dark storm clouds that produce heavy rain, lightning, and severe weather
  6. 9. — the scientific study of Earth's atmosphere, weather, and climate
  7. 11. — water that falls from clouds to Earth's surface in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail
  8. 12. — the amount of water vapor present in the air
  9. 15. — an overflow of water onto normally dry land, often caused by heavy rain or overflowing rivers
  10. 18. Point — the temperature at which air becomes saturated and water vapor begins to condense into liquid water
