## Abstract In a fair‐weather cumulus, the largest droplets, which are of 18 microns radius, grow too slowly by differential settling to become precipitation (although the time to reach raindrop size from 50 ΞΌ, for instance, would be comparatively short).

## Abstract The model of the development of the droplet spectrum in cumulus clouds described by Mason and Jonas (1974) has been used to calculate the spectrum in penetrating downdraughts and the changes which occur when a region of dry air resulting from such a downdraught is subsequently forced to
