The following information is about Precipitation.
Precipitation Defined
(1) Is any aqueous deposit, in liquid or solid form, that develops in a saturated atmosphere (relative humidity equals 100 %) and falls to the ground generally from clouds. Most clouds, however, do not produce precipitation. In many clouds, water droplets and ice crystals are too small to overcome natural updrafts found in the atmosphere. As a result, the tiny water droplets and ice crystals remain suspended in the atmosphere as clouds.
(2) The state of being precipitated from a solution.
This definition is in context to Physical Geography. See more contextual defintions for Precipitation.
