Convective precipitation occurs when air rises vertically through the (temporarily) self-sustainingmechanism of convection. Stratiformprecipitation occurs when large air masses rise diagonally as larger-scale atmospheric dynamics force them to move over each other.
Convectional rainfall. Stage 1. The sun heats the ground and warm air rises. Stage 2. As the air rises it cools and water vapour condenses to form clouds.
There are many different types of precipitation —rain, snow, hail, and sleet for example—yet they all have a few things in common. They all come from clouds. They are all forms of waterthat fall from the sky.
Here are the three main types of rainfall:
Relief Rainfall.
Convectional Rainfall.
Frontal Rainfall.
