My life as a droplet

Welcome! My name is Drip and I have an amazing cycle to get to you. Come with me and I’ll show you my life cycle.

It all starts with one step, evaporation! Evaporation is when the liquid from a water source turns into a gas. The gas goes up to the clouds and fills it up with gas. Next we have… condensation! Condensation is when the gas that was evaporated turns into liquid/water again. The last main step is precipitation. You might have heard or even seen precipitation too! Precipitation is when the clouds fill up with too much water and it comes out as rain, snow, hail, sleet and more.

Now you might be thinking how to I come to you and others well, I fall from the clouds and merge into a lake or river. I typically end up in a water facility and go to your tap, but sometimes I like to go on an adventure and go to the Waikato River, Hūnua River, etc. Oh no! It’s evaporation time for me and my friends. I’ll catch you later in my next adventure bye!
