Discussion
Three of the following are hydrometeors. Which is the odd one out?
Answer: C
Correct answer: a dust particle raised by the wind
A hydrometeor is a particle of condensed water in the atmosphere - a drop, a crystal, a flake, a hailstone. Blown dust is a lithometeor, a particle of solid matter that is not water. The distinction matters in radar work, since dust, insects and chaff all return a signal and must be recognised as non-meteorological echo.
