If falling raindrops evaporate in dry lower air, what will happen at the ground?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Little or no rain will reach the ground

Answer: A, little or no rain will reach the ground. When air below a cloud is dry, falling raindrops lose water to the air through evaporation. If the evaporation is strong enough, the drops may shrink greatly or disappear before reaching the surface. This can produce a visible streak of precipitation beneath a cloud without measurable rain at the ground; such precipitation is commonly called virga. B is wrong because evaporation in dry air does not necessarily create hail; hail requires suitable strong cloud processes and freezing growth. C is wrong because frost forms when surfaces cool sufficiently and water vapour deposits as ice, not simply because raindrops evaporate. D is impossible because clouds do not turn into rock. Cue: dry air below clouds can “drink” falling rain before it reaches the ground.
