Clouds
A cloud is a visible body of very fine water droplets or ice particles suspended in the atmosphere at altitudes up to several miles above sea level. They are generally produced by the condensation of water vapor. Other clouds, less commonly seen, are composed of smokes or dusts.

no clouds are are a gas which is why they can float around freely in the sky.
When a cloud cools it will form water droplets called?
Precipitation, which can include rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
Why is it warm at night when there are clouds?
The cloud cover helps to keep the heat from the day in, much like an insulating blanket.
Are thunderstorms formed in cumulus clouds?
Thunderstorms are associated with cumulonimbus clouds. However, cumulonimbus clouds do start off as cumulus.
Why does water vapour rises upwards?
Water vapor rises upwards because it is less dense than the surrounding air. When water evaporates, it turns into gas, which occupies more space than its liquid form, causing it to become lighter. Additionally, as warm air rises, it carries the water vapor with it, contributing to the process of convection in the atmosphere. This upward movement is essential for cloud formation and precipitation.
What are the names in Cloud's Legacy?
Cloud's Legacy names: Cloud, Sitka, Raven, Red Raven, Prince, Plenty Coup, Electra, La Brava, Blue Sioux, Rain, Dusty, Boulder, Shaman, Flint, Velvet, Boomer, Looking Glass, Echo, Image, Esperanza, Rain, Trace, Kicks- A-Lot(Kicks), Feldspar, Firestorm, LeDoux, Lady Jane, Lobo, Jasper, Ember,Lynx, Santa Fe
Do all the clouds formed in the sky cause rain?
no only the black clouds which is made by the condenstation will give rain
A cloud bust is the act of causing a cloud to disperse by focusing on it with your eyes and thus your will.
What does clouds protect us from?
Clouds are not a form of protection. They dim the sunlight we receive but do not filter UV radiation. They can and do reduce light and infra red radiation reaching the surface of the earth
Why the sky is high hiligaynon?
because the sky is in the high so they are called the sky is high boto at putay
How does the clouds make water?
Simple answer: They don't. Clouds ARE water - tiny, tiny droplets of water just like fog. If colder air moves into a cloud, it causes there to be even more water droplets forming. When the droplets get close enough together, they start touching and turning themselves into even larger droplets.
Then the "even larger" water droplets touch, and make water drops . . . at some point in this process, the water droplets grow large enough that they are too heavy to stay where they are, and then they fall to the ground. This falling to the ground is what we call, "Rain".
How go you know that the air exhaled by us contains water vapour?
because it condenses into water when your hot breath is exhaled onto a cold object.
Why does the water vapor from the sea condense as it goes upwards which is closer to the sun?
Most solar energy (sunlight) passes right through the air, although some gases will absorb infrared heat that is re-radiated from the surface. So most of the heating takes place at the surface. Even with its moisture content, the less dense warm air rises because it is displaced by cooler, heavier air from above. The drop in temperature within the troposphere is called the adiabatic lapse rate, and is between 5.5°C and 6.4°C for each 1000 meters of altitude.
As the air rises, it loses heat to the air around it, and cooler air can hold less water vapor. The vapor condenses as tiny droplets to form visible clouds.
What do you say when someone askes you What is up?
The ceiling, the clouds, the sky or what your doing. :)
How much cloud cover does the UK have today?
Mostly the UK has about 6/8 average of cloud coverage daily.
What does it mean every grey cloud has a silver lining?
It means that no matter how dark the present is still there is something bright in the future.
