The darker a cloud the more rain it holds. Moisture is drawn up by the sun, as the cloud is blown along by winds they gather along different pressures, IE high and low. After awhile the rain will be to heavy, releasing the moisture as rain.

When the condensation is to heavy to stay in the cloud,and the cloud becomes to heavy to hold any more moisture.It then releases it in the form of rain.

Clouds are supported by rising air. When the cloud droplets begin to collect together and form raindrops there mass increases and therefore the strength of the rising air needs to increase to hold them. If it can't keep the drops suspended in the cloud you have rain.
Thunderstorms have the strongest updrafts (rising air) and you may have noticed that the raindrops form these storms are quite large.

When the cloud accumulates enough precipitation, the water vapor that makes the clouds gets heavy and falls. Clouds don't "know" when to release rain. They are inanimate.

When you leave your car out after washing it. Jk, it's when the raindrops bumping around inside the cloud, capturing smaller drops, get too heavy to stay in the cloud and fall to the ground.

Because the little cloud pixies start tearing shreds off it until all the fluffy cloud water falls out.

There is something funny about these clouds. They drift aimlessly collecting dust and water dew until they become too bloated then burst the content that we know as rain. LOL.

The clouds turn heavier and turn black, is the time when it's raining.

When the water steam get so saturated. If you inject a cloud with clal ( aluminum chloride) you can simulate these phenomenon.

How does a duck know what direction south is?
And how to tell his wife from all the other ducks?
You can cut a chicken's head off
But it will keep on running and twitching
When everything seems planned out
When everything seems nicely planned out
You should listen to the Crash Test Dummies!
