clouds are water vapour, and this is why they produce rain. On the other hand, you may say that our brain is also a bunch of cells exchanging some electrical pulses, and complex systems of simple organisms can be seen as a super-organism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superorganism so this question is more complex than what it seems

This is a good question because we don’t really know what a mind is. We know what a brain looks like, and clouds definitely don’t have those, they’re just collections of water droplets. But we don’t know what conciousness is, or whether it relies on a brain.
But clouds are very simple objects, they really are just water. Whereas human beings, which are the only things we can be sure have minds are very complicated. So it seems unlikey that something simple like a cloud could have a mind. -

Not that we’re aware of… but perhaps that’s just what the cloud people want us to think, and they’re actually watching us and waiting to attack!
(That is complete nonsense that I made up though. In reality clouds don’t have minds.)
