What are the conditions for dew formation

Dew are those tiny water droplets you see on any surface in the morning

-Air parcels hovering across the surface
-The ground must be cooled below dew point temperature (the temperature required for condensation to occur)
-Less cloud cover which accelerates radiation and leaves the ground cold
-Condensation nuclei around which water vapour turns into droplets
