Nimbostratus ( rain, layered) Altitude. 500–5,500 m (2,000–18,000 ft) Appearance. Dark and featureless layer cloud full of water vapor; responsible for rain and snow. Precipitation. Yes: rain, ice pellets, or snow; sometimes virga. A nimbostratus cloud is a multilevel, amorphous, nearly uniform, and often dark-grey cloud that usually ...

The list of cloud types groups all genera as high (cirro-, cirrus), middle (alto-), multi-level (nimbo-, cumulo-, cumulus), and low (strato-, stratus). These groupings are determined by the altitude level or levels in the troposphere at which each of the various cloud types is normally found. Small cumulus are commonly grouped with the low ...

Lenticular cloud. Virga only. Lenticular cloud over the Antarctic ice near Scott Base. Lenticular clouds ( Latin: Lenticularis lentil-shaped, from lenticula lentil) are stationary clouds that form mostly in the troposphere, typically in parallel alignment to the wind direction. They are often comparable in appearance to a lens or saucer.
Cumulonimbus (from Latin cumulus 'swell', and nimbus 'cloud') is a dense, towering vertical cloud, [1] typically forming from water vapor condensing in the lower troposphere that builds upward carried by powerful buoyant air currents. Above the lower portions of the cumulonimbus the water vapor becomes ice crystals, such as snow and graupel ...
Cirrus ( cloud classification symbol: Ci) is a genus of high cloud made of ice crystals. Cirrus clouds typically appear delicate and wispy with white strands. Cirrus are usually formed when warm, dry air rises, causing water vapor deposition onto rocky or metallic dust particles at high altitudes.
Mammatus clouds over the Nepal Himalayas. Mammatus (also called mamma [1] or mammatocumulus, meaning "mammary cloud") is a cellular pattern of pouches hanging underneath the base of a cloud, typically a cumulonimbus raincloud, although they may be attached to other classes of parent clouds. The name mammatus is derived from the Latin mamma ...
