Rain Walk

When it rains, everything gets wet. Thanks to our moms and dad, we try our best to keep dry in the rain by wearing a waterproof coat, rubber boots, and putting up an umbrella.

Being in the rain, we could observe two steps of water cycle: condensation in form of clouds and precipitation in form of light rain. Everything starts with sun that shines on water and Earth making it warm. The water warms up and turned into invisible vapor raises into the air. It is very cold up in the sky. When water vapor cools, it stick together forming water droplets. When they are heavy enough, the water droplets fall back to Earth as precipitation in form of rain, snow or hail.

We have noticed that it rained for few days already. Is it ever too much rain? Heavy rain can sometimes cause flood. It happens in places which are very close to water. The rain can make rivers overflow. Water rushes onto the land and can cause o lot of damage.
Is it ever too little of rain? In some parts of our world, it doesn't rain for months. We learned that there is a special brocha for the rain. We ask Hashem to send enough rain on the land of Israel. What does mean enough? Not too little, not too much.
