the water cycle causes weather because when water evaporates, the amount of water determines how thick the clouds are and how much precipitation the cloud can hold. when the cloud can no longer hold and more precipitation, it poors out causing it to rain. depending on how cold or strong the precipitation is determines whether it rains, sleets, snows, or hails.

Why are some clouds darker?
Some clouds are darker because they are rain clouds. After the air condenses to its dew point, the water vapor that is no longer needed will form a liquid form of water, which in this case would be a cloud. The cloud would be full of water. When it can no longer hold the water, it starts to rain. The cloud is white when the sun shines on it. It becomes dark when the sky is dark, and then the thunder and rain comes.
