When a thaw begins, some of the snow turns into liquid water, which, ironically, is one of the darkest of substances.

When the relative humidity reaches 100 %, the water vapor condenses into liquid water droplets and the clouds begin to form.

Dr. Jerison studies systems governed by simple rules that nonetheless exhibit complex behaviors, such as phase transitions — for instance, when a slight temperature increase causes ice to melt into liquid water; and threshold phenomena — for instance, when a small extra deposit of soil causes a stable slope to topple over into a landslide.

Not as much latent heat as is released by condensation of water vapor into liquid water at the same temperature but still a lot.
