The heat of the sun cause the water in the oceans to evaporate. The sun's heat simultaneously warms the hot air, which rises along with the vapor. When this moisture laden air reaches the upper levels of the atmosphere, it comes in contact with the cool air there are looses its buoyancy. The moisture (or the vapor) now condense into tiny ice crystals or super-cooled water droplets, and form clouds. This process is called convection.
There are many types of clouds like Cumulus, Nimbus, Altocumulus, Cirrocumulus etc. depending the shape, characteristics and how they affect the weather.
