Yeah, sadly no. Ice holds a lot more water than air can. Another interesting effect is that when large amounts of water precipitate out of the air it creates a bigger localized temperature difference because the phase change absorbs more heat. With enough change you can get hail (the water freezes as it precipitates out) and very steep thermoclines between the layers of the air (think tornadoes or hurricanes).
