Do you know
what clouds do, make, or how they are made? Well, if you don’t have an answer
to all of these questions you need to read this to become an expert on
clouds. Clouds
are small water droplets or tiny pieces of ice. Clouds are created when water
in the air cools below the dew point and creates droplets on particles. There are many
different kinds of clouds High Clouds. Cirrus – or fluff pillows. Well, that’s what they look
like. Cirrostratus,
a hairline thin layer of white clouds. Intermediate Clouds, are the
clouds that play hide-and-go-seek with the sun and moon. When you see
those fluff balls in the sky, you ask yourself what do they make? Pat Clouds
make rain or snow. Snow and rain can turn into ice or sleet. They are made when drops of water get
to heavy and fall. Clouds do
many things. Cloud drops
will combine together and create water drops. These drops get too heavy to glide through the air and fall
from the sky and become ice, snow, or rain. Now you can really say you’ve became
the complete, extreme expert on clouds. |
