Cumulonimbus clouds develop in an unstable atmosphere, where temperature near the surface are high while they are much lower at higher altitudes. On sunny days, the sun heats the ground, which in turn heats the air just above it. On cloud days, much of the sunlight is blocked from reaching the ground, and the ground does not warm up as much.
