Why did storm 1 have more rainfall than storm 2? Before storm 1, the town could have been...
Warmer and windy, so the wind pushed the water vapor out of the parcel
Warmer and windy, so the wind pushed the parcel higher and it lost energy
Cooler and windy, the wind pushed down cold air & water vapor lost energy
Cooler and windy, the wind pushed the air parcel up and it gained energy

Which air parcel will have more rain? Why?
AP 2 will gain more energy from the air and makes water vapor turn to rain
Both air parcels will have the same amount of rain
AP 2 will lose more energy to the air and the water vapor will fall as rain
Air parcel 1 because it's colder and more water vapor will fall as rain

What explains why Storm 1 had more rainfall than Storm 2?Before Storm 1, the air parcel at the surface could have been:
cooler and windier, when the air parcel moved higher it gained energy
cooler and windier, the air parcel had low energy and stayed by the surface
warmer and windier, when the air parcel moved higher it lost energy
warmer and windier, when the cooler air from above move down it lost energy

In both storms, the air parcel temp was the same, so why did Storm 1 receive so much more rain?
Storm 1 could have had little wind, so it didn't push down on the parcel
Storm 1 could have had wind that pushed the parcel up higher
Storm 1 could have had wind that pushed water vapor out of the parcel

Erath started with the same water vapor in the air parcels. It rained at the end of Day 2 but not Day 1. Why?
the air parcel was cooler so it gained energy
the air parcel was warmer than the air and lost energy
the air parcel was the same as the air and had low energy
the air parcel was warmer than the air and gained energy
