Great question everyone! Here is your answer: Clouds and rain form when water from the ocean evaporates leaving salinity. Then the water reaches the clouds and it gets stored there until eventually the cloud gets to heavy that all the water comes down. The water lands on land via ocean and the Water Cycle starts over again.
