If Water is heavier than air so why do clouds stay up in the sky?

Because all the droplets haven't come together yet so it isn't as heavy as water yet. Water vapor (a gas) rises up until it gets cool enough to turn to droplets. These droplets are clouds in all their amazing forms.

What would happen if the air in the upper atmosphere were warmer than the water vapor in the air?
It is impossible for the water vapour in the air to be at a different temperature from the air of which it is a part. However warm air can hold more water vapour than cool air. Thus when air is warming up there are unlikely to be any clouds (clouds are caused by water vapour condensing out of air).
