In the water cycle, water comes from the clouds back to the earth through precipitation.  After it rains, where does water go?  It is collected in bodies of water like lakes and oceans...or in GROUNDWATER.
Groundwater helps our plants grow.]]> 2020-12-01 22:09:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977861754 PRECIPITATION jaylinchestnutmcknight https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977868714 When water falls from the clouds in the form of rain, sleet, snow, or hail.

Rain occurs when it is warmer in temperature, mostly in Spring and Summer.  When the temperature begins to drop (below 32°F) in winter, the rain droplets begin to freeze and turn into snow.]]> 2020-12-01 22:12:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977868714 CLOUD COVERAGE jaylinchestnutmcknight https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977899607 The state of the sky when it is covered by clouds.
(i.e. partly cloudy, cloudy or clear)

(unit = miles per hour)

Usually when a storm (thunderstorm or hurricane) is coming, the wind speeds will increase (be more).

So it is not for just one day, but over a month or year(s) in a specific town, city or state.

The areas closest to the middle of the Earth (i.e. Central America/Caribbean Islands) are red because it is hot and humid there, while the north and south poles are blue because it is usually freezing cold. Those are part of that area's climate. ]]> 2020-12-01 22:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977905155 WATER CYCLE jaylinchestnutmcknight https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977917223 The continuous movement of water on, above or below the Earth’s surface.

The water cycle includes: evaporation, condensation, precipitation, runoff and collection]]> 2020-12-01 22:35:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977917223 EVAPORATION jaylinchestnutmcknight https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977967404 The stage of the water cycle where water (liquid) turns into water vapor (gas).]]> 2020-12-01 23:03:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977967404 CONDENSATION jaylinchestnutmcknight https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977977693 The stage in the water cycle when water vapor (gas) cools and turns into water droplets (liquid). The process creates clouds. 

You can also see condensation in your bathroom after a hot steaming shower, your glasses or windows fogging up and your drink glass sweating (like in the picture below).]]> 2020-12-01 23:09:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977977693 RUNOFF jaylinchestnutmcknight https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977993265 Precipitation that  does not get absorbed into the soil and does not evaporate.

Water runoffs a mountain or hill into a body of water like an ocean, lake, pond or river.]]> 2020-12-01 23:20:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/977993265 COLLECTION jaylinchestnutmcknight https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/978017373 Water that runs off mountains, hills, etc. and falls back into oceans, lakes, and rivers.

Water is collected in bodies of water before it is evaporated and the water cycle begin]]> 2020-12-01 23:34:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jaylinchestnutmcknight/nucf4nbiw3qu2jr7/wish/978017373
