Those are cirrus clouds.

Cirrocumulus cloud is a clous that often appears at high altitudes.
Polar mesospheric clouds are the clouds that forms very high in the atmosphere. Polar mesospheric is the word added onto the name of the cloud.

A wispy cloud is very fragile, very slight. If even a small breeze touched a wispy cloud, the cloud would disappear.

Cirrus clouds are found at about 16,500 feet in altitude. The cirrus cloud is very wispy and feather-like in appearance.

they are very high up in the atmosphere and since it is very cold up there ice crystals form instead of water droplets they then usually form a wispy looking cloud, sometimes they are called "mare's tails"

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.
Very high electrostatic potential, cloud to earth and cloud to cloud.
