Your screenshot is taken from below at a fairly tight FOV.
That is not a good screenshot to compare clouds with since
your camera looks almost straight up (with scattered clouds
you are less likely to see a cloud looking straight up).

Try this one...

Each shot uses the exact same view and weather scenario,
but with 3D clouds on and then off. Thats a more sensible
external view to use in my opinion, because it allows you
to see the aircraft, ground, sky, and clouds, all together
in perspective. The 3D clouds are not perfect (I'd love for
them to cast shadows on the ground and my aircraft!), but
its a good start for so early on...

Kind regards,
