Stratus: Light drizzle or flurry
If cold enough, they provide snow!
nimbostratus clouds bring snow or rain
Yes, nimbus clouds bring rain, sleet, snow, etc.
Nimbostratus clouds...
Here are a list of clouds that can make rain and/or snow:Altocumulus - can bring precipitationAltostratus - can bring rain or snowStratocumulus - can bring light rain or drizzleStratus - can bring minor precipitationNimbostratus - can bring constant precipitationCumulonimbus - can bring heavy rain, thunderstorms, or light showersContrary to popular belief, cumulus clouds do not make rain or snow. They can form together to make cumulonimbus clouds that can make rain or snow. Cumulus clouds can be a prediction of heavy weather to come if they appear at certain times of the day.Cumulus clouds are considered the 'fair weather' cloud, as they do not produce rain or snow on their own unless they form together into a cumulonimbus to do so.
they bring down a little snow and rain
No. Cyclones often bring rain or snow. Anticyclones bring fair weather with few or no clouds.
Yes. Warm fronts typically bring clouds and light rain or snow.
Cumulonimbus or nimbostratus often are the most common of clouds that bring steady precipitation. Other clouds bring rain and snow, the these two bring it most often.
Cumulonimbus Clouds are generally known as thunderstorm clouds, they are associated with heavy rain, snow. hail and lightning
white clouds seldom give rain; grey clouds are more potent to give rain which is why the sky is usually grey or dark grey when it rains :)
Stratocumulus clouds brings very little precipitation but they can bring light drizzle or a tad bit of snow.
There are two main rain/snow making clouds. Nimbostratus, a thick uniformly grey cloud at low heights will cause light to moderate rain or snow to fall over long periods of time. Cumulonimbus, a massive white towering cloud sometimes with the shape of an anvil, with a very dark appearance from below. These clouds will make very heavy rain/snow fall over a short time, often with the presence of lightning. These are the clouds that will make rain and snow
nimbus really means that a cloud that already has rain or snow falling out of it.
