Atmospheric phenomena
Such ‘surprises of the weather’ as rain, snow, hail, dew and so on, are called atmospheric phenomena.
When water vapor in the atmosphere is cooled, condensation results. And when the resulting water droplets obtain a sufficient size, they fall as rain.
If the raindrops pass through zones of temperature below freezing, hail results.
If condensation occurs at temperatures below freezing, snow is formed.
If condensation of water vapor takes place directly on a surface cooler than the air, either dew or frost is formed , depending upon whether the temperature at which condensation occurs is above or below freezing.
Rainfall has an important influence on our lives. We depend upon rainfall for our water supply. If there is too little rain people and plants may die; if there is too much rain there may be floods, which cause damage.

TV Weather Report(Part 1)
Providing weather reports is a significant part of meteorologists` work. We can listen to the weather forecast on TV, on radio, or by the telephone. Let`s try to present a daylong TV weather report for our country in English.
“For the next day on the territory of Russian Federation the weather will be as the following.
In the Far East the developing cyclone rules the weather. A band of cloud will spread into central and southern parts of the region. This will move slowly east across the territory during Monday, although the rain will be rather sporadic. Temperatures will be: from +18 to +24 degrees Celsius in the south, and from +11 to +17 degrees Celsius in the north. The speed of wind will be about 9—14 meters/second. Pressure will fall.
All parts of Siberia will have sunny spells with the best of the sunshine being in north—eastern parts after a few early morning patches of mist and fog. There will also be some showers, mainly in north—western and western parts, but the showers tend to die out during the afternoon. Winds will be moderate to fresh from the south—west, and temperatures will rise to near or slightly above average for the time of the year (about 22 degrees above zero). Pressure will be stable.
