-
precipitation is or form of liquid such as rain, ice, sleet, snow, hail that falls from cumulonimbus clouds.

The structure has layers named exosphere, thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, and troposphere.
Exosphere is the highest layer, the altitude range is 500 km to 1000 km, temperature is -90 to -130 degrees F, the heat source is the Thermosphere.
Thermosphere means the hottest layer, altitude is 90 km, temperature is 120 degrees F, and the heat source is the sun.
Mesosphere is the middle layer, altitude is 50 km to 90 km, temperature is 32 to 120 degrees F, and the heat source is the stratosphere.
The Stratosphere means spreading out, the altitude is 10 to 50 km, the temperature is 76 to 32 degrees F, the heat source is the sun.
The Troposphere is the ground layer, the altitude is 0-10 km, the temperature is 59 to 79 degrees F, the heat source is the ground.
Wind
There are three types of fronts: Cold Front, Warm Front, and Stationary Front.
A cold front can move into places quickly. As a mass of cold, dense air moves forward, warmer air ahead of it is pushed upward.
A warm front move more slowly than cold fronts. Warm air moves gradually up and over a mass of denser and colder air.

Air Quality
air quality is how much is polluting the air around us such as factories, human made things, nature such as storms, air pollutants, etc.
