How high from the ground are stratus clouds in meters?
They are bellow 6000 ft
Are Cirro stratus clouds high clouds?
They are usually located above 5.5 km.
What is above the clouds when it rains?
In most cases, clear blue sunny sky. Convective (Thunderstorm) clouds can build up as high at 50,000ft but this is unusual. Temperatures above 18,000ft are almost always below freezing so the chance of rain above those clouds is also unlikely. Weather systems can also have many different types of clouds at different varying heights with lots of clear air in between.

What word describes high thin wispy clouds?

Lacy or wispy clouds that form at high altitudes?
Lacy clouds that form at high altitudes are cirrus clouds. These types of clouds usually form before there is a change in weather. These clouds form above 20,000 feet, and they indicate fair weather.

Is the ozone layer above or below the clouds?
Yes, the ozone layer is above the clouds. It's up in the lower stratosphere, about 12-19 miles (20-30 km) above Earth. There are very high polar clouds that are higher than this, but most clouds are in the troposphere where the highest clouds (in the polar regions) are about 2 - 5 miles (3 - 8 km) above Earth.
