Rain is a major component of the water cycle and is responsible for depositing most of the fresh water on the Earth. It provides suitable conditions for many types of ecosystem,. The major cause of rain production is moisture moving along three-dimensional zones of temperature and moisture contrasts known as weather fronts. If enough moisture and upward motion is present, precipitation falls from convective clouds (those with strong upward vertical motion) such as cumulonimbus (thunder clouds) which can organize into narrow rainbands. In mountainous areas, heavy precipitation is possible where upslope flow is maximized within windward sides of the terrain at elevation which forces moist air to condense and fall out as rainfall along the sides of mountains. On the leeward side of mountains, desert climates can exist due to the dry air caused by downslope flow which causes heating and drying of the air mass. The movement of the monsoon trough, or intertropical convergence zone, brings rainy seasons to savannah climes. The urban heat island effect leads to increased rainfall, both in amounts and intensity, downwind of cities. Global warming is also causing changes in the precipitation pattern globally, including wetter conditions across eastern North America and drier conditions in the tropics.[citation needed] Antarctica is the driest continent. The globally averaged annual precipitation over land is 715 millimetres (28.1 in), but over the whole Earth it is much higher at 990 millimetres (39 in).[1] Climate classification systems such as the Köppen climate classification system use average annual rainfall to help differentiate between differing climate regimes. Rainfall is measured using rain gauges. Rainfall amounts can be estimated by weather radar. Air contains water vapor and the amount of water in a given mass of dry air, known as the mixing ratio, is measured in grams of water per kilogram of dry air (g/kg).[2][3] The amount of moisture in air is also commonly reported as relative humidity; which is the percentage of the total water vapor air can hold at a particular air temperature.[4] How much water vapor a parcel of air can contain before it becomes saturated (100% relative humidity) and forms into a cloud (a group of visible and tiny water and ice particles suspended above the Earth's surface)[5] depends on its temperature. Warmer air can contain more water vapor than cooler air before becoming saturated. Therefore, one way to saturate a parcel of air is to cool it. The dew point is the temperature to which a parcel must be cooled in order to become saturated.[6] There are four main mechanisms for cooling the air to its dew point: adiabatic cooling, conductive cooling, radiational cooling, and evaporative cooling. Adiabatic cooling occurs when air rises and expands.[7] The air can rise due to convection, large-scale atmospheric motions, or a physical barrier such as a mountain (orographic lift). Conductive cooling occurs when the air comes into contact with a colder surface,[8] usually by being blown from one surface to another, for example from a liquid water surface to colder land. Radiational cooling occurs due to the emission of infrared radiation, either by the air or by the surface underneath.[9] Evaporative cooling occurs when moisture is added to the air through evaporation, which forces the air temperature to cool to its wet-bulb temperature, or until it reaches saturation.[10] The main ways water vapor is added to the air are: wind convergence into areas of upward motion,[11] precipitation or virga falling from above,[12] daytime heating evaporating water from the surface of oceans, water bodies or wet land,[13] transpiration from plants,[14] cool or dry air moving over warmer water,[15] and lifting air over mountains.[16] Water vapor normally begins to condense on condensation nuclei such as dust, ice, and salt in order to form clouds. Elevated portions of weather fronts (which are three-dimensional in nature)[17] force broad areas of upward motion within the Earth's atmosphere which form clouds decks such as altostratus or cirrostratus.[18] Stratus is a stable cloud deck which tends to form when a cool, stable air mass is trapped underneath a warm air mass. It can also form due to the lifting of advection fog during breezy conditions.[19]

Various of car sliding on snow STORYLINE Animals at Belgrade zoo in Serbia were getting extra special care as harsh weather hit the Balkans, bringing with it heavy snow and freezing temperatures. Keepers were making sure animals were kept warm and fed several times a day. The snow in the Zoo is being swept away on a daily basis and most enclosures also have floor and wall heating facilities in order to accommodate the more sensitive species. While tropical animals and reptiles don't venture out of their enclosures, some animals relish the snow. White tigers seemed to enjoy the snowfall, playfully venturing out of their dens and rubbing their heads in the snow. The Zoo's lions, however unaccustomed to the cold weather, didn't shy away from inspecting their enclosed outdoor grounds, covered in the fresh snow that continues to fall. "The animals that are accustomed to these cold weather conditions are also taken care of, they can venture outdoors, and we feed them and give them water several times a day to prevent freezing," said zoo employee Nadja Radovic. Blizzards blocked roads, stranded villages, disrupted power supplies and shut down an airport in the Balkans on Tuesday, the fourth straight day of tough winter weather in the region of southeastern Europe. In Serbia, where snow began to fall on Saturday, officials said road crews were still struggling to even clear the central squares of some cities. In Pristina, Kosovo, some 50 centimetres (19.6 inches) of snow fell, causing traffic difficulties and hazardous conditions for pedestrians. At least nine deaths across the Balkans have been blamed on the snow and deep freeze, with temperatures as low as -15 Celsius (5 degrees Fahrenheit).

English/Nat The El-Nino weather phenomenon has caused more havoc in the United States - this time along California's north coast. Beach front luxury homes are literally metres (yards) away from collapsing, due to severe storms which have severely eroded a cliff on top of which they are perched. El Nino has dumped double the amount of rain on the area and six metre (20 foot) swells have pounded the 22 metre (75 foot) cliff face. This is the latest El-Nino related disaster to hit the United States - dozens of luxury beachfront homes literally metres away from collapse. For some residents stepping out their back door would mean a 75 foot drop to the rocky beach below. These homes in Pacifica, just south of San Francisco jut out into thin air after weeks of severe storms. The cliff face has been battered so hard it has simply crumbled away. Residents here, face an uncertain future. SOUNDBITE: (English) "It was terrible, I mean no one could believe it. They said when we moved in that we would lose about a foot a year but no-one expected this El-Nino I guess and it's just taken its toll on everybody around here. Everybody's devastated." SUPER CAPTION: Jeff Lena, Pacifica resident The danger is so great many people have been driven out of their homes. Resident, Jeff Lena, has been forced out of his dream home and into a camper van after engineers slapped a red tag on his home, branding it uninhabitable Already a few homes have fallen into the sea and at least three dozen more are dangerously close. Below, debris from one collapsing house lay at the foot of the sandy cliff. The deck of another house, some of its supports gone, tilts downwards. The white plastic plumbing of a third house hangs in the breeze. Engineers, who are constantly inspecting the area, fear the erosion could get much worse because the cliffs are made only of soft sand and clay and are still saturated with water. SOUNDBITE: (English) "During the early part when this first started, the damage first started here we were getting fifteen to twenty foot swells combine that with the high tides, the winds, the ground being saturated you know the surf pounds against the cliff." SUPER CAPTION: Mike Blogrove, Captain, Pacifica Police Department Most of this damage isn't covered by insurance forcing homeowners to wait until spring to see if their homes can be salvaged - and at what cost. SOUNDBITE: (English) "The only options they have right now is to either lift up the homes as they stand now, move them towards the street and reset them on new footing foundations or to demolish the existing structure and either rebuild or just walk away from their lot." SUPER CAPTION: Steven Brandvold, Pacifica Fire Marshall Emergency services are keeping a close watch on the homes as authorities and homeowners try to decide what to do.

KOSOVO BORDER: ARMS SMUGGLERS CLASH WITH YUGOSLAV TROOPS

Albanian/Serbo-Croat Albanian arms smugglers and Yugoslav troops have traded fire at several Kosovo border points, leaving at least four smugglers dead. There are also reports of clashes elsewhere in the rebellious province, where ethnic Albanians are fighting for independence from Serbia. The Kosovan authorities say they have confiscated large quantities of arms and ammunition following clashes in the border village of Vrbnica, 70 kilometres (45 miles) southwest of Pristina. There are a number of mountain passes that Albanian smugglers use to get arms across the border into Kosovo. Policing them from the air and on the ground is a hard task for the Yugoslav forces. When they spot suspected smugglers, the information is quickly relayed back and troops seal off the area. This was the end of the line for two smugglers at Kosare, where they were gunned down by Yugoslav forces. In the firefight, several of their horses were killed as well. The weapons seized included semi-automatic rifles and land mines. Troops said it was the first time they had seized land mines from ethnic Albanian smugglers. The Serb commander criticised Albania, accusing it of allowing smugglers a free rein to trade in arms. SOUNDBITE: (Serbo Croat) "This is the one of the hardest and one of the most unaccessible border crossings. The terrorists from Kosovo cross into Albania. Albania then accepts them, supports them and give them weapons. Then they return to Kosovo." SUPER CAPTION: Member of Pristina Officer Corps In the army barracks at Djakovica, the Serb military showed off their haul of captured weapons. They are also holding one alleged smuggler. The man apparently had three horses loaded with weapons. SOUNDBITE: (Albanian) "This is the first time I have done it. I went to Albania to buy cigarettes and try to take them back. There were none, so I didn't want to come back with nothing, so I took back the weapons." SUPER CAPTION: Zef Kqirat, Albanian smuggler These weapons are probably only a small percentage of arms already be in the hands of separatists fighting in Kosovo. And while the United States and the European Union try to find some middle ground between the two sides, the fighting looks set to continue.

Recent bouts of extreme weather — including persistent warmth and drought in the western USA and cold outbreaks in the East — are linked to weird fluctuations of wind patterns high above the Earth's surface, says a study published Sunday in the British journal Nature. These strange fluctuations in wind patterns, related to jet streams at upper levels of the atmosphere, and their connection to global warming have been the subject of extensive research within the climate science community. "Over the past three decades, there is evidence that extreme weather events are linked to changes in atmospheric air flow patterns," said study lead author James Screen of the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom. http://rssfeeds.usatoday.com/~r/usatoday-NewsTopStories/~3/kRi-ye5AGVs/ http://www.wochit.com

Spanish/Nat Torrential rain caused by the 'El Nino' weather phenomenon earlier this year has turned miles of desert in Peru into a giant lake. The massive stretch of water in the north of Peru, which measures 80 kilometres (50 miles) by 40 kilometres (25 miles), has affectionately become known as 'La Nina.' Many local farmers, reeling from the destruction wrought by 'El Nino' on their crops, have been forced to fish the waters of 'La Nina' as their only means of survival. Visitors to this spot would, until very recently, have looked out across a dry desert landscape. Now a lake stretches as far as the eye can see. This is 'La Nina,' in northern Peru's Sechura desert - a lake that spans 80 kilometres (50 miles) by 40 kilometres (25 miles), fed by the torrential rains of the so-called 'El Nino' phenomenon. The 'El Nino,' the worst in 50 years, is now over, but the damage to much of Peru has cost many lives and even more livelihoods. The farmers of this region, left destitute by the rains, have turned to fishing in a bid to survive. More than 500 people have come to depend on the fish that enter the 'La Nina' lake from the nearby Pacific coast. SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) "Before the 'El Nino' began, in these parts, there was cotton and rice growing, people worked with these crops, but when the - what's it called? - 'El Nino' phenomenon came, it destroyed their livelihood. So this was a bitter blow for them and they were forced to come here, where, thanks to the 'La Nina,' there was this source of work which is the 'La Nina' lake." SUPER CAPTION: Manuel Arianse Riba, Fisherman But the lake is likely to disappear almost as quickly as it came. Already water levels are dropping and the prospects for these struggling fishermen look bleak. SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) "We are very worried. It's not only me whose worried. We are extremely worried. Although here it is a huge lake, over there, I don't know if you have seen the bit on the other side of the lake, but there it is already beginning to dry up. So, we are asking, especially the local Mayor of Sechura, to please, we are begging, come and make a reservoir here. It's easy enough to do." SUPER CAPTION: Manuel Arianse Riba, Fisherman The days of fishing are numbered for those farmers who now cast their nets and depend on a daily catch for survival. The lake is estimated to reach a depth of 20 metres, but the water is slowly seeping out to sea. The fishermen can think of it only as their immediate source of work and survival. SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) "We are farmers. We've always lived like that, but things have changed. 'El Nino' has ruined everything - destroyed irrigation channels, farming lands, destroyed houses. Now we work as fishermen - it's the only solution left to us." SUPER CAPTION: Genaro Rumiche Morales, Fisherman New flora and fauna have also begun to appear along the lake's coastline. It is hoped that many endangered coastal species will find a temporary haven in this new wetland. But all this will one day be dry again if steps are not taken to dam the water and maintain it as a reservoir. The only consolation for the farmers forced to abandon their fields will be the layer of rich, fertile, alluvial soil that the lake should leave behind.

Spanish/Nat A new freak weather phenomenon is looming off the coast of Peru, just as weathermen are predicting an end to months of devastating floods. So-called 'La Nina' - a mass of cold Pacific Ocean water - is heading for Peru's coastline as a freak warm swathe of water, known as 'El Nino', recedes. Weathermen predict a particularly cold winter ahead, while doctors are concerned about its likely effects on public health. The sun barely shines through the pollution which smothers Peru's capital Lima. In recent months, the six (m) million people who live here have endured not only air quality as poor as this, but freak weather and floods brought about by so-called El Nino. El Nino, an irregular freak Pacific Ocean current of warm water, brought havoc in its wake. Scientists say the worst has passed but now predict a second phase of climatic change due to a cold water current, known as La Nina. Some already blame La Nina for unseasonal low temperatures. Few dispute that a colder winter than usual is on its way. SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) "The phenomenon called Nina, or Anti-Nino, or Viejo (the old man) is an event contrary to El Nino, and it is characterised by a heavy fall of the temperatures, climatic changes in the form of precipitations, and a strengthening of the winds and therefore a concentration of cold waters near the costs." SUPER CAPTION: Felipe Huanan, National Service for Meteorology And Hydrology of Peru The death toll in Peru as a result of El Nino has already exceeded 200, although La Nina is not thought to be so life threatening. But illness among those most vulnerable to low temperatures and polluted air, especially the young, is likely to rise. Already Lima's hospitals are struggling to treat young patients stricken with respiratory illnesses. SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) "The humidity of this climate and also the pollution bring us great numbers of patients with respiratory affections during all year, but at certain times, like now, with significant changes in the temperatures, the number of patients is considerably higher." SUPER CAPTION: Adolfo Ubidia, Emergency Hospital for Children The full effect of La Nina is likely to be felt by the end of June. Weathermen say it may even be beneficial to local climates, with increased rainfall in normally dry regions. But for many in Lima, the arrival of La Nina will mean a long winter and more health problems.

English/Nat "El Nino" -- the weather phenomenon that has caused unusual weather patterns since the beginning of 1997 is said to be dying out. Using the latest satellite technology, NASA researchers say that for the first time they can actually see the changes from "El Nino to non-El Nino conditions". But the demise of El Nino may just herald the birth of El Nino's baby sister, La Nina. These NASA images combine data from satellites and ocean buoys to trace the evolution of El Nino...from its beginning in early 1997, to its peak last November, and then to its decline in the spring. Latest images show rapidly cooling regions of the Pacific. The red indicates warmer than normal temperatures - the blue, cooler than normal. By this month, the extreme temperatures had begun to return to normal. But scientists believe it could be the start of a La Nina - the opposite of an El Nino. SOUNDBITE: "The stage is set for a La Nina because the heat supply becomes less, becomes deficit so that cold water from deep ocean swells up to the shallow depths and when the trade winds regain its strength last month the temperature dropped very rapidly in the central Pacific ." SUPER CAPTION: Dr. Lee Fu/NASA Scientist Scientists call it the "El Nino - La Nina pattern." and believe that global warming is making the occurrences much more frequent. SOUNDBITE: "This planet is getting warmer. there is more energy to drive phenomena like the El Nino and La Nina." SUPER CAPTION: Dr. Lee Fu/NASA Scientist The end of the El Nino has already had a startling effect on the waters around the Galapagos Islands. During the El Nino months, the surrounding waters were much warmer than normal... choking off essential ocean nutrients, and killing much of the plant and animal life on the islands. But as El Nino ended cold water returned, bringing back life along with it. SOUNDBITE: "When El Nino ends, and it ended very abruptly this time around the Galapagos, in the course of a less than a week, what happens is these surface waters which were very warm and depleted in nutrients are replaced by deep, cold upwelled water, which now brings nutrients up to the surface, allowing the phytoplankton to bloom. And what we're able to see from one week to the next, is an increase in phytoplankton concentrations - about 150 thousand square kilometers of ocean bloomed in less than a week. It's really remarkable." SUPER CAPTION: Gene Feldman/NASA Research Oceanographer You can see the images of the cooling masses of water in the Pacific Ocean that follow the El Nino warming trend. Some areas that have seen a very wet autumn and winter, could expect a very dry summer.

English/Nat Less than a year ago a sigh of relief greeted the end of the El Nino weather phenomenon. Now it's colder sister La Nina has hit the weather maps and is threatening to cause similarly serious problems. El Nino is the name for an unusual warming of the waters in the eastern Pacific. La Nina -- Spanish for "little girl" -- is just the opposite, and the National Weather Service says this La Nina is one of the strongest seen in the last fifty years. It has brought bone-chilling temperatures of 74 degrees Fahrenheit (59 degrees Celsius) below zero to parts of Alaska, as well as flooding and heavy snows to other parts of the West It has also delivered a wide range of extreme weather from South America to Asia, and cooled ocean temperatures in the Equatorial Pacific. La Nina may also increase the number of hurricanes in the United States. SOUNDBITE: (English) "If you move that fast-moving air out of the way, the clouds are free to build into the atmosphere and if they do that the hurricanes generate more easily and more powerfully and not only that, they are free to move into the continental areas, into the US" SUPER CAPTION: David Adamec, Research Oceanographer, Goddard Space Flight Center Elsewhere in the world, La Nina's impacts include heavy rains, severe storms and flooding in southern Africa. Observers have been monitoring drought in Kenya and Tanzania, flooding in the Philippines and Indonesia and abnormal wetness in northern South America. The same regions suffered the opposite effects during the 1997-98 El Nino. After more than a year of disruptive weather around the world, El Nino - an unusual warming of the water in the eastern Pacific Ocean - eased last May.

The bodies of passengers killed when a plane slammed into a snow-covered mountain and burst into flames were taken to a Nepalese hospital on Monday. The wreckage of the plane was discovered by rescuers earlier in the day. Moving slowly on foot through thick snow, they had travelled for 13 kilometres (8 miles) to the crash site, near Machinelek, about 250 kilometres (160 miles) west of the capital, Katmandu. All 18 people on board, including a small child were killed in the crash. Air traffic control had lost contact with the state-owned Nepal Airlines Twin Otter on Sunday afternoon in poor visibility due to snow, rain and fog. The state-run airline has received repeated criticism over allegations of corruption and flying old planes. Last year, the European Union had banned all Nepalese airlines from flying to Europe because of poor aviation safety records. The plane was flying from Katmandu to Jumla, about 400 kilometres (250 miles) to the west, when it made an unscheduled fuel stop in the city of Pokhara, about a third of the way into the journey. The de Havilland Canada-manufactured aircraft had 15 passengers and three crew members on board. One of the passengers was believed to be a Danish national, while the rest on board, including an infant, were Nepalese. The plane was 43 years old. In May, another plane of the same make and model operated by Nepal Airlines crashed while attempting to land at a mountain airstrip in northern Nepal, injuring all 21 people on board.

Russian/Eng/Nat Ukraine is so short of energy that it could not afford to temporarily shut down the Chernobyl nuclear power plant for repairs. Earlier this month, Ukraine's Nuclear Regulation Administration ordered the plant's only working reactor to be temporarily stopped. The Administration warned that some safety equipment were reaching the end of its operational life and needed to be upgraded or replaced. Energy shortages in Ukraine and an exceptionally cold winter has left much of the country with power outages and most of the nation's power supplies overtaxed and dangerous. Ukraine faces a huge energy deficit this winter because conventional energy plants, which are owed more than one (b)billion U-S dollars by consumers, can't afford enough fuel to satisfy the demand for electricity and heat. Thousands of towns and villages in Ukraine already go without electricity for several hours every day as temperatures throughout much of the country have sunk below zero. Chernobyl's reactor number 3 which has been in operation since the atomic disaster in 1986 is still going strong but it is long past due for repairs. Western nations have long demanded the shutdown of the working Chernobyl reactor amid growing worries over its safety. But the Ukrainian Energy Ministry has repeatedly protested the order to shut down the reactor, saying it is needed until the spring to ensure enough electricity for the winter months. SOUNDBITE: (Russian) "In order to shutdown the third block we would have to shutoff many regions and towns, people who would simply be without light and heat." SUPER CAPTION: Alexander Elsishev, shift boss at Chernobyl's 3# reactor But, the ones that have had to go through most of winter without heat and electricity say they have nothing more to lose. SOUNDBITE: (Russian) "There is no where to wash, there are no lights, we cant even wash our children and anyway there is no school because even there is no light. Let them send the police after us, we are not afraid anymore. We will fight because we have no where else to go." SUPER CAPTION: "Sergey Golupsov, Simferopol citizen Officials also worry that the beleaguered reactor is overtaxed due to sporadic power outages across the Ukraine which leave the plant prone to power surges. Chernobyl's reactor number three was supposed to be shut down on December 1st for much needed repair. But a spokesman for the state nuclear energy company Energoatom said that the reactor will stay active until at least December 15. By then, other nuclear reactors undergoing repairs are set to be restarted. If the reactor is not closed for repairs environmentalists nuclear watchdogs say an even worse disaster could occur -- something on the scale of the 1986 explosion. SOUNDBITE: (English) "Of course it is more dangerous for the third reactor to keep on working then about any other reactor in the country because nobody knows the real consequences of the radiation that the reactor received from the damaged one" SUPER CAPTION: Andrei Odienko, Greenpeace Ukraine office One Chernobyl reactor was destroyed in a 1986 explosion and fire, the world's worst nuclear accident. Since then, there have been frequent malfunctions at the one remaining reactor despite lengthy repairs between July 1997 and May 1998.

KOSOVO: ONSET OF WINTER WILL WORSEN PLIGHT OF REFUGEES (V)

Eng/Albanian/Nat VOICED BY RICHARD VAUGHAN As the first snow fell over Kosovo this weekend, aid agencies were warning that the onset of winter would worsen the plight of thousands of ethnic Albanian refugees still unable to return to their homes. The U-N-H-C-R says that hazardous driving conditions mean deliveries of crucial food supplies to displaced villagers is under threat. The majority of refugees are unable or too scared to return to their villages and many houses are virtual ruins. 00 02 This picture postcard scene is not as it appears - the houses have no roofs and many of the buildings are badly damaged. For the Kosovo Albanians who fled their homes in a desperate bid for survival, the approaching winter's yet another danger. Some like the Thaqi family are living in cramped conditions in strangers' homes and food supplies are running out. The eight-member family lives in one room in the tiny village of Klecka. They came down from their hiding place in the mountains last week when the weather became unbearable. 00 33 The U-N-H-C-R believes many others have stayed in the hills, fearful of Serb patrols. 00 38 With the Balkan winter already beginning, it means months more misery for those who have suffered the most. SOUNDBITE (Albanian) "Our children were crying in the mountains, we didn't have any bread. The other food was full of ants. We hadn't time to take anything else from our homes." SUPER CAPTION: Emine Thaqi, refugee 01 00 Relief agencies spent the past week travelling throughout the region to assess the extent of the refugee problem. They're compiling a census of where people are staying and how many homes and villages have been damaged or destroyed. The report'll provide a framework on how to proceed with delivering aid. 01 17 SOUNDBITE (English) "It's going to be very, very difficult for us to reach these people when the winter comes. Even now the roads going up to the mountains are very slippery and these people need food on a regular basis." SUPER CAPTION: Fernando del Mundo, spokesman, UNHCR Kosovo mission 01 31 But winter's not the only danger. Sporadic fighting between the Serbs and the ethnic Albanians makes delivering aid a dangerous mission.
