I believe it is because the glass has a smaller coefficient of linear expansion than the water. The glass undergoes thermal expansion and thus when it heats up, it expands and when it cools down it contracts. The inside and the outside of the glass does not reach an equilibrium temperature very quickly since the glass has a low thermal conductivity. The surface of the glass rapidly contracts while the inner surface is expanding which causes the glass to crack.

Meteorologists take careful measurements of daily minimum temperatures, maximum temperatures, and precipitation (rainfall). The
Vinil7 [7]

Months with higher temperature have more rainfall.

Explanation:

From the presented graph, we can see that all three parameters are following a same trend. When the maximum temperatures increase, the minimum temperatures increase too, and the rainfall increases as well. When the maximum temperatures decrease, the minimum temperatures decrease, and the rainfall decreases too.

There is a simple explanation for the connection of higher temperature and more rainfall in Scotland. Scotland is located on an island, thus it is heavily influenced by the sea. When the temperature is higher, the humidity is higher, and in accordance to that more rainfall occurs. When the temperature is lower, the humidity is lower, so there is less rainfall, or instead of rainfall the precipitation can be manifested as snowfall.
