    "The sun is the energy for the water cycle.

    The sun evaporates the water from lakes and streams and puddles, etc

    water vapor in the air increases.[invisible]

    clouds form when the rising air gets cooler and condensation occurs forming the clouds, the water vapor you can now see.

    As the droplets get bigger in clouds, they eventually get heavy enough to fall or precipitate. Depending on the temperature this may be snow or rain.

    Precipitation falls on the earth and runs downhill to lower spots. This is runoff. Some seeps into the ground and adds to wells and underground water called the water table. Some collects in ponds or streams and eventually runs to the ocean.

    Transpiration is water leaving the leaves of plants. It adds to the water vapor in the air. " - science teacher
