How do I know if clouds are carrying rain?

What exactly are clouds, anyway?

Clouds are visible masses of liquid water droplets that are suspended in the atmosphere above the surface of the Earth. They form as a result of condensation of water vapor. Clouds can form near warm and cold fronts, where air flows up the sides of mountains and cools as it rises, and where warm air travels over a colder surface.
