Clouds look different because they’re made of water in different forms and heights. Imagine clouds as big, fluffy marshmallows floating in the sky, some are light and soft, others are heavy and dark. When warm air rises from Earth, it carries moisture up into the sky. Depending on how much moisture there is and how high it goes, clouds can look like cotton candy or thunderheads.
Examples
- A sunny day has fluffy white clouds like cotton candy.
- Stormy weather brings dark, heavy clouds that look like thunderheads.
- On a gray, overcast day, the sky looks covered in flat layers of gray clouds.
