Condensation report is expected (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

due

'is expected' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'condensation report' is the wordplay.
'condensation' becomes 'dew' (dew is a kind of condensation).
'report' shows a homophone (sound like).
'dew' is a homophone of 'DUE'.

(Other definitions for due that I've seen before include "Expected; appropriate" , "Appropriate - fee - requiring payment" , "Scheduled to arrive" , "Proper, appropriate" , "Required; proper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
