Do Clouds Form in High or Low Pressure

Image
Clouds can form at the height where the air is slightly oversaturated - ie. Also the air is descending which reduces. As Air Rises It Cools And Decreases Pressure Spreading Out Clouds Form When The Air Cools Below Earth And Space Science Science Education Weather And Climate Answer 1 of 2. . Because it is colder higher up these clouds are mostly made of ice crystals. In order to understand the types of weather conditions generally associated with high and low pressure systems we must think vertically. So to answer the question. High-pressure areas usually are areas of fair settled weather. Clouds begin to form when a parcel of air rises from the surface up into the atmosphere. Fronts occur when two large masses of air collide at the Earths surface. Warm fronts produce clouds when warm air replaces cold air by sliding above it. With high pressure systems the water vapor is pushed down to the earths surface ...
