How is it formed?
Cold air flows over the warm lake water, the water heats the air.
Warm air is less dense and it can hold more water vapor.
Warm air rises and begins to cool. As the air cools, the moisture condenses
and forms clouds snow falls from the cloud once the air
condenses

• As air rises it cools and condenses again, forming clouds
• As the water vapor cools more, it forms snow
