condensation
ever since i asked jason (and he successfully explained) about how condensation works, I've been waiting to see some on my morning glass of water. the backstory to this is that i bring a glass of mostly-ice-water with me to work every morning. i fill it up with mostly ice to start then continue refilling it with the water filter i have at work. this process ensures that i can sip ice water throughout the morning hours. during the past few winter months i started to notice that there was no condensation forming on my water glass. so i asked jason about, knowing that he would be able to give me an answer. he explained that in the winter there is less moisture hanging around in the air (humidity) and since the air temperature is colder it can only hold a certain amount of water at a time -- something a little more complicated about pressure and such. so, i am happy to report that today....my water glass is making some condensation!! the world makes sense once again!
