Is it likely to rain when there are cirrus clouds in the sky?
No, the weather is likely to be nice when cirrus clouds are present. Cirrus clouds tend to form high in the atmosphere and present as thin or wispy. However, if many cirrus clouds are present in the sky, it may indicate a change of weather soon, such as an approaching storm.
Which clouds look like curly wisps of hair?
Cirrus clouds, specifically cirrus uncinus clouds, can resemble curly wisps of hair. These high-altitude clouds form in the upper atmosphere and often have a thin, delicate appearance with distinct curly or wispy strands.
Do thunderstorms and tornadoes come from nimbostratus clouds?
No. Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus clouds, and tornadoes form from thunderstorms. Cucmulonimbus clouds develop in highly unstable atmosphere, while nimbo stratus indicates a fairly stable atmosphere.
What are cirrus made out of?
Cirrus clouds are made of ice crystals that have been carefully form over time
What kind of clouds are thin wispy and make ice crystals?
Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy and are composed of ice crystals. Cirrus clouds are the highest form of cloud, and do not usually cause precipitation.
What type of clouds form with unstable atmospheric conditions?
cirrus clouds
What kind of clouds form low in the atmosphere?
stratus and cirrus
Where do stratus cumulus and cirrus clouds form?
in the sky

Which form at higher altitudes-cirrus clouds or stratus clouds?
Cirrus
What clouds are formed high in the atmosphere?
The highest clouds are polar mesospheric clouds, which, at heights from 76,000 to 85,000 m (altitude) are much higher than other types of clouds, such as cirrus and cumulonimbus. Cumulonimbus can exceptionally reach 23,000 m at the very top of a peaked formation, but these clouds normally form mainly within the 2,000 to 16,000 m range. Cirrus clouds, at a maximum height of about 18,000 m in tropical zones, are also much lower than polar mesosphericclouds.
Do thunderstorms and tornadoes come from nimbostratus clouds?
No. Thunderstorms form from cumulonimbus clouds, and tornadoes form from thunderstorms. Cucmulonimbus clouds develop in highly unstable atmosphere, while nimbo stratus indicates a fairly stable atmosphere.
Why do cumulonimbus form on sunny days?
Cumulonimbus clouds form when the atmosphere is unstable. One factor in an unstable atmosphere is a rapid temperature drop with increasing height. When the sun can shine directly on the ground it heats the lowest part of the atmosphere, which can lead to instability. Conversely, clouds block some of the sun's light from reaching the ground and tend to make the atmosphere more stable, which makes it harder for cumulonimbus clouds to form.
These clouds form at high altiudes which kind of clouds are they?
cirrus
What clouds form above 6000 meters cirrus or stratus?
cirrus clouds are above 6000 meters and are the highest of all clouds
Classification of clouds above 20000 feet?
cirrus clouds are clouds that form above 18,000 feet in the air.
