Why do clouds tend to form around 3: 00 pm and 6: 00 am

Clouds are formed when the water vapor that is present in the atmosphere starts condensing. It is a process of phase transformation of water from vapor to liquid. This process takes place due to the dropping of temperature.

Usually, in the morning at around 6 a.m and in the evening at about 3 p.m, the temperature is relatively cooler than the day time. So this provides a suitable condition for cloud formation. The warm air that rises up extensively due to the heating at day time starts cooling in the morning and evening due to its lower temperature. As a result of which, the air loses its capacity to hold the water vapor. Therefore, the condensation process takes place and clouds are formed.
