WHAT DOES VIRGA MEAN IN PORTUGUESE?

Virga

In meteorology, Virga, also known as "Invisible Rain" or "Ghost Rain", is a type of precipitation that falls from a cloud but evaporates before reaching the ground while it is still falling, in a phenomenon that happens mainly in periods / dry air locations. At high altitudes the precipitation falls mainly as ice crystals before melting and finally evaporating; this usually occurs due to compressional heat because the atmospheric pressure is higher near the ground. It is very common in deserts and temperate climates. In North America, it is generally seen in the Western United States and the Prairies of Canada. The virga can cause various climatic effects because the rain in the liquid state becomes gaseous and then begins to remove heat from the air due to the high heat of vaporization of the water. In some cases, these pockets of cooler air descend quickly, creating turbulence that can be extremely dangerous for aviation.
