Why are clouds blue?

clouds are blue, they are blue occasionally on a storm. Clouds are white for the most part, however they are usually grey when it rains and are occasionally blue and black when it rains out and occasionally white when it rains, but certain grey clouds known as altoculumus also are grey but don't produce rain; so technically it can't rain but you still see grey clouds sometimes black clouds don't produce rain or blue but this is rare, blue rain clouds are called culumus fractus, and culumus fractus produce rain. black clouds are called: Cumulonimbus during a storm and mostly produce lightning/thunder. Clouds can be seen as white because rain droplets form in the skies and with excessive drops form clouds, this has nothing to do with the suns light, the sun produces heat and doesn't form light, water droplets form light. Light has multiple colors involved, the colors are not that of the rainbow and also it's not white. White is a neutral party in rain storms, you will often see the sky turning grey, or occasionally blue/black. The sky is not made up of the rainbow rather, it's made up of a variety of colors, black, grey and white.
