why clouds float

Clouds float because the water vapor rises with the up current and doesn't have enough mass to fall. As the vapor cools in the upper atmosphere, it condenses and creates droplets with enough mass to fall to earth.

Questions from Papa

Papa has a couple of questions for you to investigate:

Why do clouds float?

Why does rain fall?

Storms

I know how rain is collected. Black clouds collect moisture and depending on how cold it is, rain or snow comes down.


Black clouds swirl up and start turning around very fast to make a tornado.

Monday, it was rainy. We went to Target.. The weather was kinda bad out there and I video taped it, but I didn't record it. This night it might snow. That's all I have.
