This may well be the fluffiest fact I’ve ever published, since there is no definitive answer. Clouds can vary widely in size, shape, and density but this answer is straight from the mouth of a genuine scientist, so there you go. (note: that should be read as ‘gen-yoooo-ine scientist‘ for proper effect) However, it would be more accurate for me to say…
FACT: An average cloud, of average size, and average water density, roughly, approximately, pretty much weighs about 4 million killograms, give or take, more or less.
…but that doesn’t fit on Twitter.
In order to put that into scope, that everyday-joe fluffy cloud weighs as much as 37 fully grown blue whales. (or 2 million flowerpots) So for goodness sakes, when Chicken Little suggests the sky might be falling… RUN!
