 | A fact from Precipitation types appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 30 April 2007. The text of the entry was as follows:

This is the stupidest thing i've heard, but is caused when convection occurs where the surface of the atmosphere becomes heated or hotter than normal...". The atmosphere does not have a surface, although it does have an interface with the earth's surface. Perhaps it should say "...where the surface of the earth becomes heated..."

I intend to merge convection rain, convectional recipitation, and cyclonic precipitation into this article. These concepts are important, but there isn't enough information here to support individual articles. I also intend to clean up and source the information as I do this. Does anyone have any suggestions or problems with this? Pilotbob 18:14, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Additionally, some of this may be duplicated in the precipitation article. Would it make sense to clean this up and link to it from there or would it be better to merge it into that article. Pilotbob 18:28, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The article was in poor condition; I cleaned it up as best I could, including the text, pictures, and captions. However, some of the text was so garbled that I couldn't figure out what it was trying to say, so I've flagged the article for expert help. It's not at all clear how this article relates to the other meteorology articles, but I suspect that it should be better linked, integrated, or merged.
