Clouds are possibly the most interesting (and beautiful) of all weather phenomena. While there is a wide variety of cloud shapes and sizes, they are all made of the same thing: condensed water or ice. The air in the cloud has been cooled (almost always because it is rising) and it can no longer hold all of thewater vapor it contains. Some of that (invisible) water vapor condenses to form (visible) cloud droplets or ice crystals.

When water evaporates into the air, it hits the dew point temperature and sticks to smoke and dust particle in the air. Next, it condenses to form a cloud. Dew Point: The temperature at which water vapor condenses for a given amount of moisture in the air.

Clouds aren't made from anything in the atmosphere. It comes from the water cycle where the water evaporates and the water particles rise, then cool when it reaches a far high height. These particles come together to form a cloud. When the cloud has TOO MANY water particles, you have precipitatiION...................

hi I'm a 5th grade and cloud formation is caused by the evaporation of water into water vapor. When water vapor turns back into water, it is called condensation. hope I could help.

the reason the clouds form is because when the water vapor rises it be comes clouds so when it rains it is just the clouds that are full of water vapor

Clouds are water vapour, formed by sea water being evaporated by the sun and wind.

Why are there few or no clouds in the atmosphere?

If there are almost no clouds in the atmosphere, that means there is a high pressure system, which causes cold, dry air to come down from the top of the troposphere.


Why do clouds usually form high in the sky instead of near earths atmosphere?

Clouds are in earth's atmosphere. Clouds form whem moisture in the air condenses, and usually conditions mnear the gcround are too warm for moisture to condense. Instead, clouds form at higher altitudes where it is cooler.


Do thunderstorms and tornadoes come from nimbostratus clouds?

No. Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus clouds, and tornadoes form from thunderstorms. Cucmulonimbus clouds develop in highly unstable atmosphere, while nimbo stratus indicates a fairly stable atmosphere.
