Up in the Clouds

The heat of the sun turns the water in seas and lakes into a gas called water vapour. There is always water vapour in the air, but it is invisible until it reaches a place where the temperature is cooler. There, it forms tiny drops of water which we see as clouds. Clouds come in many different forms. Cumulus clouds are thick, white and fluffy like candyfloss. Cirrus clouds are also white, but very thin, so you can see the blue sky through them. Stratus clouds are low and cover the whole sky. There are other clouds too, including combinations of those we have looked at, such as stratocumulus or cirrostratus clouds.

Clouds can tell us what weather is coming. When cumulus clouds start to grow, and turn dark at the bottom, rain is on the way. When cirrus clouds form a pattern of lines or spots, a large new weather front is moving in, bringing wet or stormy weather with it. With stratus clouds, the weather is often already damp or rainy, and these low clouds are a sign the weather will continue that way for a while.
