Temperature plays a critical role in the formation of superstorms because it affects the amount of moisture that can be held in the atmosphere. Warm air can hold more moisture than cold air, so when warm and moist air is forced upward, it can cool and release its moisture in the form of rain, snow, or hail.
As the superstorm moves along its path, it can collect more water vapor from the surrounding air, which can fuel its growth and intensify its effects. This can occur through a process called evapotranspiration, in which water is released into the atmosphere through plants and other living organisms, or through the process of water vapor being picked up by the storm's strong winds.
Once the water vapor is collected by the superstorm, it can be transformed into different forms of precipitation, depending on the temperature and other conditions in the atmosphere. If the air is cold enough, the water vapor can freeze into ice crystals, which can then fall as snow or hail. If the air is warmer, the water vapor may condense into liquid droplets, which can then fall as rain
