What are clouds named?

Clouds are named by their height. Strato means low so that means Stratus is a low-lying cloud. Where cirro means high making cirrus clouds high up in the atmosphere.

A cirrus cloud is a sign of fairweather or approaching storms. this is because they have been pushed up into the atmosphere by the approaching storm systems.
