15 Facts About Clouds 

Clouds, that is, the four stars in the sky, in the beauty of the sky. Many times even a strange figure appears in the clouds. Today I will tell you all about the cloud, how the clouds are formed, the type of cloud, the cloud bursting, the walking, flying all information and interesting facts. Just stay with us ...

What is a cloud, how are clouds formed, cloud types?

1. It may take a few minutes to a few hours to become a cloud. These can be long and wide any size.

2. Clouds are mainly of 3 types: Cumulus cloud (up to 3300 ft.), Stratus cloud (up to 6000 ft.) And Cirrus cloud (up to 16500 ft.).

3. Mist is also a kind of cloud and it is very close to the ground and walking in the fog is like walking in the clouds.

4. The cloud is composed of small water droplets and ice crystals. The water in the cloud comes from the seas, rivers, ponds, and lakes via evaporation. The water rises above the sun's rays, the air is cool in the sky above it becomes a small drop of water. This water drop sticks to the small particles of the dust present in the air and makes such a cloud by placing billions of droplets like this. When these drops are weighing heavily, then it starts falling from the sky.

5. It is not that there is no weight in the clouds, the weight of a cloud is approximately 5 lakh kg i.e. equivalent to a plane or 100 elephants. It can be 1-1.5 kilometers long.

6. The clouds reflect the sunlight so white is visible.

7. The cloud can run from the speed of 146 feet per second i.e. a cloud will take 9 hours to reach Mumbai from Delhi.

8. The atmosphere on which there is atmosphere is a cloud but not water. The sulfur oxide on Venus and you will be surprised to know that Saturn and Jupiter are the clouds of ammonia on the planet.

9. The flight is delayed or canceled due to 'Cumulonimbus' clouds. It is capable of bringing lightning, storms and sometimes even tornadoes mean it is very powerful.

10. The constellation clouds (Noctilucent Clouds) are at an altitude of 75 to 85 km. It is so high that even the sunlight reflects on the night.

11. The clouds are considered lucky in Iran. While blessing someone here, 'Your sky is always filled with clouds' is called.

12. The location of the most clouded areas in the world is the South Africa Prince of Antarctic Indian Ocean. Here are only 800 hours of sunlight out of 8760 hours of the year.

Cloud Burst

13. In the place where it rains more than 100mm or more than 4 inches, it is called a cloudburst. Due to cloudburst, the maximum flood occurred in Ganga delta on January 8, 1966. Part of it is in India and some of Bangladesh. There was rain 2329mm here. On July 1, 2016, a cloudburst in Uttarakhand received 1372mm rainfall. When the hot air causes the droplets to rise above the bottom and when it becomes very large then the clouds are more likely to burst. Most of the clouds burst because of the height of 14,000 feet from the ground and due to collision with the mountains.

Why is cloud gray?

14. When the clouds with billions of water drops become very thick then the sunlight does not shine in it and these gray appearances. As clouds become gray, we should understand that it is going to rain.

Why do not the clouds fall down due to gravitational force?

15. Clouds are very small, that is, 1-micron size made up of drops. Because the blob is so light, it does not respond to gravity correctly and this also applies to the entire cloud.

So that's all about the 15 facts about clouds friends I hope you like reading the post.
