How do clouds form?

Yeah how do clouds form?  Well, water evaporates and turns into a gas we call water vapor.  The water vapor is carried up by hot air.  The water vapor comes together and makes a cloud.  I have a experiment and a tip.  The experiment is get a balloon fill it with warm air.  What happens?  It floats!  Because warm air is lighter than cold air so it lifts the balloon up.  Here's the tip.  You can tell when a storm is coming because the water vapor makes your hair stand up and frizz.  This is what I call a sunny day!
