As water (in the form of gas) rises higher in the atmosphere, it starts to cool and become a liquid again. This process is called condensation. When a large amount of water vapor condenses, it results in the formation of clouds.�

When the water in the clouds gets too heavy, the water falls back to the earth. This is called precipitation.�
