I am specifically curious if on a cold day would rainfall make it colder, warmer, or have no effect?

Good question. There is always some degree of evaporation of rainfall. Sometimes all of it evaporates. What we see then is called Virga, rain that is falling and evaporating before reaching the surface. Now when rain evaporates it takes heat from the air to do so. Therefore there is a sensible cooling of the air when it is raining.

During daytime,if rainfall is there then cloud will also be there which will prevent sun's radiation.Hence surface will not be heated and the temperature is controlled from rising.If the rainfall continues for a long time the humidity will continue to be 100 percent and the surface will be cooled continuously.As the atmosphere (and hence the air)is heated or cooled from the bottom(surface of the earth) the temperature is likely to come down during day time and in the night time it may go down further.

on the ordinary sea point rigidity of 1013.25 hPa, a cubic meter of air can't incorporate extra effective than 14 grams water on the temperature of 15 ranges Celsius. If the air gets chillier, the surplus of moisture could desire to condense as tiny water droplets and that's what happens whilst heat air rises and cools down with the help of the adiabatic effect of a lesser rigidity. yet, whilst it reaches the dew element temperature and clouds style, the technique of condensing creates warmth ability and the cloud retains mountain climbing because of the fact slightly warmer than the encompassing air. in actuality, the so-talked approximately as moist adiabatic lapse value is two times as low because of the fact the dry one; a pair of million/2 a level Celsius consistent with one hundred meter of altitude. because of the fact the cloud retains increasing, condensation maintains until eventually the mass of the drops is so great that they pass down with the help of gravity. it rather is proper, a cloud that has precipitation is a cloud that rises! without a extra cooling of the air, there is not any precipitation. And a cloud with precipitation (rain or snow) is a cloud that strikes upward, the two with the help of the convective effect of a hotter air, or with the help of the orographic effect of the terrain like, a mountain selection.

It depends, on how cold the weather is. If the air is sufficiently cold, the rain can freeze on the way to hitting the ground, which is sleet. It can freeze once it hits, freezing rain. I was in Florida once, it was 86. It started raining and 30 minutes later it was 71 degrees.

yes the rainfall effects the air temperature when rainfall increases then autometically decrese the temperature.

If I remember right, moisture in the air speeds temperature change. That's why relative humidity is an immportant factor to meteorology.

When water vapours condense to form water, heat is evaluated. Temprature at higher levels is lower than that at lower levels. Combined effect of these factors developes the resultant temprature.

I think so
