Because the clouds are made of water vapour, and it the rain is the water vapour when it has condensed, so without the clouds, there is nowhere for the water to come from
The answer above is INCORRECT. The correct answer from NASA Ames Research Center is found below.
"Clouds cover a huge range of physical dimensions, and particle sizes. The particle size range is similar to that from baseballs to planets. Not surprisingly the physics of the clouds varies significantly over such a large particle size range. There are several aspects of cloud physics that we take for granted on Earth, but which are not general. FOR INSTANCE IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE TO HAVE RAIN WITHOUT CLOUDS. Clouds occur on Earth because it is relatively difficult to grow particles to large enough sizes for coalescence to occur. Similarly, significant supersaturations can occur without cloud formation. It is thought that as much as 20% of the upper troposphere of Earth is supersaturated with respect to ice, but clouds are not present due to the difficulty of ice nucleation. Such supersaturated regions may be even more common on cold planets."

What else can I help you with?
Can it rain but white clouds no rain clouds?
Yes, it is possible for it to rain even if there are white clouds in the sky instead of the typical dark rain clouds. Rain formation can be influenced by various factors such as temperature, humidity, and atmospheric conditions, not just the appearance of clouds.
What kind of clouds are rain clouds?
All clouds are rain clouds. You just have to know when the rain will rall out of them. When a clou is really grey the rain in that cloud is going to fall soon. If the cloud is white it is NOT going to rain!There You Go!AnswerAll clouds are rain clouds. You just have to know when the rain will rall out of them. When a clou is really grey the rain in that cloud is going to fall soon. If the cloud is white it is NOT going to rain!There You Go!NO NO NO!!!!!!! u have it all wrong!A cumulusnimbus cloud is a rain cloud!Well, at least that's what my science teacher said
What are rain giving clouds called?
Rain-giving clouds are typically referred to as cumulonimbus clouds. These clouds are large, vertically-developed clouds that can produce heavy rain showers, thunderstorms, and even hail.
What two types of clouds produce rain?
Nimbostratus clouds and cumulonimbus clouds are the two main types of clouds that produce rain. Nimbostratus clouds are thick, dark clouds that cover the sky and bring steady, prolonged rain showers. Cumulonimbus clouds are large, towering clouds associated with thunderstorms, which can produce heavy rain showers, lightning, and thunder.
Which group of clouds produce rain?
The names of the groups of clouds that can produce rain are nimbostratus and cumulonimbus. The nimbostratus clouds are the ones we see that become very dark and produce a lot of rain or snow. The cumulonimbus clouds are responsible for lighter rain and thunderstorms.
What clouds are rain clouds?
Rain clouds are are rain clouds so stop being dumb...that wasn't the right answer u dumbo.
How are clouds and rain related?
the rain comes from clouds
Can it rain but white clouds no rain clouds?

Is white fluffy clouds rain?
White fluffy clouds, known as cumulus clouds, do not bring rain on their own. Rain typically falls from higher-level clouds such as nimbostratus or cumulonimbus clouds, which have more moisture and larger vertical development. Cumulus clouds may eventually develop into rain-producing clouds if they continue to grow and merge with other clouds.

What is the scientific name of stratus rain clouds?
The scientific name for stratus rain clouds is "nimbostratus." These clouds are low, thick clouds that often bring continuous rain or snow.
How does the rain affect the rain?
