why doesn't cloud formation take place until the dew point temperature is reached

Clouds form when air reaches its dew point, the temperature when the air is saturated. This can happen in two ways. First, the air temperature can stay the same while the humidity increases. This is common in locations that are warm and humid.

Cloud formation doesn't take place until the dew point temperature is reached because there is no saturation of air at this point.

What is Dew point?

This is defined as the temperature in which the air needs to be cooled to in order to achieve a relative humidity of 100%.

When the dew point temperature is reached, the relative humidity at constant pressure is 100% which is the criteria for cloud formation.
