sratus clouds and fog are generally found at the lowest altitude while I do not know where they are formed.
Cirrocumulus clouds are very high altitude clouds that form in the troposphere. They form between 16,000 feet and 39,000 feet above the surface of the Earth.
Above 7000 meters
condensation level
Cirrus clouds are high altitude clouds occurring between 17,000 and 40,000 feet
Most are cumulus clouds.
Clouds begin to form when water vapor reaches the correct: altitude, dew point, and temperature.
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.
