This song is available on Intelli-Tunes' album Science Songs.
We’re searching the sky for precipitation,
Watching the clouds for the moisture there.
Searching the sky for precipitation,
Rain, snow, hail or sleet.
When the moisture in the atmosphere
Condenses in the sky,
Water droplets freeze inside the clouds,
When they melt, the rain will fly.
If the temperature is cold enough
Ice crystals can not melt.
Six sided snowflakes fall right down.
It’s cold out, you can tell.
We’re searching the sky for precipitation,
Watching the clouds for the moisture there.
Searching the sky for precipitation,
Rain, snow, hail or sleet.
When the thunder rolls, ice crystals grow,
In the dark clouds way up high.
Ice pellets form and the hailstones fall,
It’s a cumulonimbus sky.
If there’s rain and snow mixed in the air,
Sleet begins to fall.
The temperature’s not cold enough
Some crystals melt and thaw.
Rain snow hail sleet
Rain snow hail sleet
We’re searching the sky for precipitation,
Watching the clouds for the moisture there.
Searching the sky for precipitation,
Rain, snow, hail or sleet.
