Fluffy clouds moving across a blue sky, or the colors of clouds at sunset, are part of the beauty of nature.
Clouds also play an important part in the earth's weather.
The water that they bring as rain or snow is necessary to all forms of life. Clouds can also bring destruction or even death, in the form of hail or tornadoes. Some clouds are great fleecy masses, and others look like giant feathers. Still others are gray or black sheets that darken the sky. Most clouds change shape continuously, as new droplets form in some parts of the cloud and droplets evaporate in others.
