How are clouds formed?
All air contains water, but near the ground it is usually in the form of an invisible gas called water vapor. When warm air rises, it expands and cools. Cool air can't hold as much water vapor as warm air, so some of the vapor condenses onto tiny pieces of dust that are floating in the air and forms a tiny droplet around each dust particle. When billions of these droplets come together they become a visible cloud.

∙ 11y agoThey are formed by air containing invisible water vapour to rise and then cool at its dew point. This is the temperature at which the air becomes saturated. As the water cools the air looses its capacity to hold the water and this condenses into clouds. The water then becomes heavy enough to fall to Earth under gravity
