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.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of clouds make us wet?
Rain clouds, specifically nimbostratus clouds, are responsible for making us wet. These clouds are low-level clouds that are thick and bring continuous precipitation. When they release their moisture in the form of rain, it reaches the ground and makes us wet.
Does snow come from clouds?
Yes, snow forms when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into ice crystals within clouds. These ice crystals then join together to form snowflakes, which fall to the ground when they become heavy enough.
What is it called when water falls back into the earth as rain or snow?
The official meteorological term is precipitation.According to the US Geological Survey, a sub-organization of the US Department of the Interior: "Precipitation is water released from clouds in the form of rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow, or hail. It is the primary connection in the water cycle that provides for the delivery of atmospheric water to the Earth. Most precipitation falls as rain."
What does up when the rain comes down?
If you mean what 'goes' up when the rain comes down, then the answer is the barometric pressure. A low pressure cell, which is a chief indicator of a rain storm, occurs when the barometric pressure drops below 30 points. As the storm dissipates, the low pressure cell changes, causing the barometric pressure to rise.
In the western US the movement of air causes clouds to release their moisture as rain on which side of mountain ranges?
The western side of mountain ranges in the western US typically receives more rain due to orographic lifting. As moist air is forced to rise over the mountains, it cools and condenses, leading to cloud formation and precipitation. This phenomenon is known as the rain shadow effect, which results in drier conditions on the eastern side of the mountains.
Why are clouds there?
Well to rain on us of course clouds are even made of rain in a gas form
How do clouds usually form over the US?
yes
How do you clouds usually form rain over the US?
well they form from all the oceans. this is because the water forms and floats up in the air and is usally in bunches and thats why you could see it.
Why are we not seeding clouds to make rain in this drought?
There is no way for us to make clouds rain when we want them to. If we could do that then we would not be worried to much about it being to dry, we would just make it rain. Why can't seeding the clouds make them rain ?
What types of clouds give us rain?
Nimbus clouds, specifically nimbostratus and cumulonimbus clouds, are the types of clouds that typically produce rain. These clouds are characterized by their thick, dark appearance and their ability to hold significant amounts of moisture which eventually falls as precipitation.
What is the function of the clouds?
Clouds are condensed water vapor and their purpose is to make rain.

Can you tell a storm is coming by the clouds?
yes certian clouds tell us wether there will be a storm or not. like if you see a dark gray cloud it will most likely rain. if they are fluffy and white it MIGHT rain... like a thirty % chance it will. if there are no clouds then no way will it rain unless it changes in like five seconds. =)
How does pollution effect us?
* When we breathe it in, it puts the chemicals in our bodies. Those can make us sick or cause cancer or other sicknesses and some without a cure. * The pollution in the air combines with rain clouds to form acid rain. This acidic rain eats away at statues, harms trees, and kills fish in ponds and if we eat those fish it gets in our body.
Does water drops come from clouds?
Yes, water droplets in the form of rain can come from clouds when the water vapor in the clouds condenses and forms liquid droplets that eventually fall to the ground.
How can you forecast the weather by observing the clouds?
cumulus clouds often do indicate fire weather.
