Clouds are great in finding out what the weather might be today, because clouds form in different ways and each one of them has there own kind of weather. Clouds are condensed water vapor that exists in the sky. In order for clouds to form, the sky must have a little bit of dirt or dust for a vapor cloud to form. With this, rainwater is not completely clean. When the water vapor droplets collide, they form larger water droplets, when the droplets get to big, they fall to the ground as precipitation. Many lakes or rivers including reservoirs rely on rainwater to provide the amount of water they need. As humans, we rely on the reservoirs to supply us with water. 

In the picture above, it shows the water cycle in full detail and colour. Water evaporates mainly from the ocean and water vapour rises high into the sky, until it condenses. The water condenses into a cloud. For some clouds they have so much water that they have to let it go by using precipitation, or in other words rain. When it reaches the ground it often goes right back into the water cycle, and then it goes from the top again and again.  

Lastly we hope you would not mind watching some videos we found, thanks to youtube, about clouds. To give you a better understanding and a better picture of the beauty of clouds.
