The exhalation of water is vapour: air condensing into water is cloud. Mist is what is left over when a cloud condenses into Diego Perotti Jersey water, and is therefore rather a sign of fine weather than of rain; for mist might be called a barren cloud. So we get a circular process that follows the course of the sun. For Argentina Drakt Barn according as the sun moves to this side or that, the moisture in this process rises or falls. We must think of it as a river flowing up and down in a circle and made up partly of air, partly of water. When the sun is near, the stream of vapour flows upwards; when it recedes, the stream of water flows down: and the order of sequence, at all events, in this process always remains the same. So if ‘Oceanus’ had some secret meaning in early writers, perhaps they may have meant this river that flows in a circle about the Andros Townsend Jersey earth.
So the moisture is always raised by the heat and descends to the earth again when it gets cold. These processes and, in some cases, their varieties are distinguished by special names. When the water falls in small drops it is called a Kyle Walker Jersey drizzle; when the drops are larger it is rain.

Some of the vapour that is formed by day does not rise high because the ratio of the fire that is raising it to the water that is being raised is small. When this cools and descends at night it is called dew and hoar-frost. When the vapour is frozen before it has condensed to water again it is hoar-frost; and this appears in winter and is commoner in cold places. It is dew when the vapour has condensed into water and the heat is not so great as to dry up the moisture that has Bertrand Traore Jersey been raised nor the cold sufficient (owing to the Gerard Pique Jersey warmth of the climate or season) for Danilo Jersey the vapour itself to freeze. For dew is more commonly found when the season or the place is warm, whereas the opposite, as has been said, is the case with hoar-frost. For obviously vapour is warmer than water, having still the fire that raised it: Miami Dolphins Sverige consequently more cold Paris Saint-Germain FC Jerseys is needed to freeze it.
Both dew and hoar-frost are found when the sky is clear and there NHL Knit Hattar Sverige is no wind. For the vapour could not be raised unless the sky were clear, and if a wind were blowing it could not condense.
The fact that hoar-frost is not found on mountains contributes to prove that these phenomena occur because the vapour does not rise high. One reason for this is that it rises from hollow and watery places, so that the heat that is raising it, bearing as it were too heavy a burden cannot lift it to a great height but soon lets it fall again. A second reason is that the motion of the air is more pronounced at a height, and this dissolves a gathering of this kind.
Everywhere, except in Pontus, dew is found with south winds and not with north winds. There the opposite is the case and it is found with north winds and not with south. The Chicago Bears Hattar Sverige reason is the same as that which explains why dew is found in warm weather Viktor Claesson Jersey and not in cold. For the south wind brings warm, and the north, wintry weather. For the north wind is cold and so quenches the heat of the evaporation. But in Pontus the slinks:
