ELI5: How does water evaporate off the ground after rain, if it isn't at boiling point?

How does water evaporate off the ground if it isn't at boiling point?

Think about the particles of water as billiard balls, all bouncing around on the pool table. Sometimes, with the random collisions and chaotic bouncing around, one of the balls gets going so fast that it jumps out of the pool table. That's like standing water, when, even if it's cool out, some particles still manage to 'escape' the droplet.

The hotter it is, the more more the particles jiggle around, so more pool balls jump out. Get it hot enough, and it's guaranteed that a ball couldn't possible stay within the walls of the table.
