HOW MUCH DOES A CLOUD WEIGH?
@jonesy_rhys06
Despite their cotton-like appearance and the ease at which an aeroplane flies through them, an average fair-weather cumulus cloud with a volume of 0.23 cubic miles can weigh in at 500,000 kilograms. This is about four times as heavy as a blue whale – and that’s only counting the water particles that the cloud is made up of.
Big, dark storm clouds, called cumulonimbus, can weigh much more than that.
