Observing the clouds from above we can understand well enough that they are clearly the reason why we have different weather condition on the ground, and why... Continue Reading →

Rain makes modern life possible by providing water for agriculture, industry, hygiene, and electrical energy. Governments, groups, and individuals collect rain for personal and public use.
