What are wispy clouds found at middle elevations?
Altostratus cloud
What cloud is thick puffy clouds that occur at middle altitudes?
it is called the cumulus cloud that is puffy and in the middle altitude.
Cloud prefix meaning middle?
The mid-altitude clouds are given the prefix, "Alto." Alto means high. These clouds are between 6000 and 20,000 feet. There is no prefix meaning middle for clouds.
True or false are stratus clouds seen higher than altocumulus clouds?
Unlikely, since by definition strutus is a low cloud type while Ac is a middle-level cloud type.
What do the three main types of clouds look like?
stratus clouds =like a blanket or layered cumumlonimbus clouds=big bulky clouds most of the time bring rain or storms cirrus clouds =look like wisps of air or of a cloud
What cloud is Layered but puffy that occur at middle and lower elevations?
what puffy clouds that can be found at middle altitudes
What are wispy clouds found at middle elevations?
Altostratus cloud
What cloud is high thin layered clouds?
strato-nimbus are long, layered clouds aross the sky. strato-cumulus are puffy layered clouds spread out.
Is fog a stratus cloud?
no the stratus cloud is not fog because stratus clouds are flat layered clouds unlike fog which are thin clouds that covers earths surface.
What clouds are layered gray and produce light precipitation?
the stratus cloud is the correct answer
Which cloud is in the middle?
Altocumulus, Cumulus, and Stratus are the middle clouds.
If you saw thin wispy clouds followed by lower layered cloud what type of weather might you expect in the near future?
The thin, wispy clouds you saw are Cirrus clouds and they are very high in the atmosphere and made of ice crystals. They normally indicate a change in the weather, and it is usually bad weather. This means that the low layered cloud you saw was either a stratus or cumulonimbus cloud which are both storm clouds. Cirrus clouds don't always predict storms, but that was probably what was happening.
Which cloud group do stratocumulus clouds belong in?
middle
What cloud is thick puffy clouds that occur at middle altitudes?

What describes an altocumulus cloud?

Can you name clouds?
Yes. The highest clouds are the cirrus clouds, which are thin, wispy, and white, and there are cirro-cumulus clouds, which are puffy clouds. The middle clouds are the altostratus clouds which blanket the sky. There is also the altocumulus clouds which is also a puffy cloud. Lastly, there is the cumulus cloud which is as well puffy. Finally, we have the lowest clouds. the first one is the stratocumulus cloud which is ALSO puffy. there is the nimbostratus cloud which produces rain. then there is the stratus cloud, also know as fog. Finally there is the cumulonibus cloud, also known as a thunderhead. it has not either a high, middle, or low cloud. it stretches from the high clouds to the low clouds. as you can guess by its name, it produces heavy rain and thunderstorms. There are many clouds with the same features but an easy way to remember them is by the parts of its name: cirro/cirrus- high alto- middle cumulus/cumulo- puffy nimbo/nimbus- produces rain stratus/strato- low
