What are clouds?

0

Clouds form when the water vapor content of air condenses. The flat bottom of fair weather cumulus clouds is the lifting condensation level.

Clouds contain water droplets and often a few ice crystals. When air filled with moisture is raised by the heat of the Sun into higher elevations in the atmosphere the pressure gradually decreases and the air gets cooled and consequently the water vapour condenses over dust particles to become water droplets which are visible as clouds to the naked eye.
