Water is evaporated from the Earth. When the evaporation reaches a given height/temperature it will condense out as fine water droplets(clouds).

These fine water droplets remain in the sky , because of air currents. However, if they combine into larger droplets, they will eventually fall as rain.

Yes and no. Clouds are formed by water vapor collecting in the air. The rain, snow, or hail that precipitates from them is formed by that water vapor heavily condensing on specks of dust or pollution - particles in the air.
