<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">Arab Weather - The term used to describe the release of thermal energy when water vapor condenses to form clouds is &quot;latent heat of condensation&quot; or &quot;latent heat of evaporation.&quot; As water vapor condenses, latent heat is released into the surrounding environment, warming the air and raising its temperature. This process is a major source of energy in the atmospheric system and plays an important role in the formation of clouds and storms.</p>
