This talk by a retired meteorologist takes us to the fascinating world of clouds-what they are and why they matter. Starting with the physics of condensation, Rick explains how rising air cools to produce droplets of ice crystals, sometimes leading to rain. He then identifies the different cloud types, their structures and how they signal changes in weather. Reinforced by informative short videos, the presentation leaves us with a clear understanding of clouds and their role in weather. This is a zoom class, you may attend from the comfort of your own home or join in person at the Kamloops Sports Council.
