Answer 1

Because it is often the movement of air vertically that creates clouds in the air.

The clouds formed on the ground are far less dynamic.

And there’s the fact you’re not supported by the air when you’re walking on the ground. If the air density suddenly changes it doesn’t affect what’s holding you up.
