Answer:
They don't for a variety of reasons related to the cloud's supply of moisture.
Explanation:
- We need a supply of moisture entering the cloud to replace all the droplets that have been "sucked up" into a raindrop since it takes around a million droplets to make a raindrop.
- Typically, thin, wispy clouds like this don't bring forth any precipitation, including rain. It won't cause any rain to fall.
- For instance, it won't rain if there aren't enough water droplets in a cloud to collide and produce huge drops; instead, the little droplets will remain hanging in the atmosphere.
Since the water droplets in a cloud are heavy, gravity gradually pushes them down, causing them to progressively sink lower.
