A Cloud Can Weigh Over a Million Pounds!

Clouds look light, but they are made of countless tiny water droplets spread across a huge area.

Warm rising air helps keep clouds suspended.

A typical cumulus cloud can weigh as much as hundreds of cars.

Clouds look white because their tiny water droplets scatter sunlight in every direction.

Clouds may not always appear white. Haze and dust in the atmosphere can cause clouds to appear yellow, orange, or red.
