Vapor, or water in its gas form
The water in clouds is in the form of liquid droplets. Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets that have condensed from water vapor in the air. If the temperature drops low enough, these liquid water droplets can freeze and turn into ice crystals.
Stratus clouds are made of water droplets because they form at low altitudes where the air is cooler, causing water vapor to condense into liquid water droplets. These clouds appear as a uniform layer with a smooth, gray appearance due to the small size of the water droplets and the lack of vertical development.
Water
It many be water in the ground or leaves.
No, stratus clouds are primarily composed of water droplets. These clouds are low-lying, layered clouds that form in stable atmospheric conditions. However, high-altitude stratus clouds may contain ice crystals if temperatures are cold enough.
What happens when the clouds hang very low is that it becomes foggy. Fog is clouds that are very low to the ground and that are are made up of tiny water drops.
High altitude clouds are made of ice crystals because temperatures are colder at higher altitudes, causing water vapor to freeze. Low altitude clouds are made of liquid water because temperatures are warmer near the Earth's surface, allowing water vapor to remain in liquid form.
Feet. Low clouds form at an altitude of 2000 feet.
Clouds form with ice crystals instead of liquid water droplets when the temperature is below freezing in the atmosphere. Ice crystals can also form in clouds that are very high up in the atmosphere where temperatures are colder.
Low-altitude clouds are typically composed of water droplets. They form at altitudes below 6,500 feet and are often associated with fair weather conditions, although they can also bring light precipitation. Examples of low-altitude clouds include cumulus and stratus clouds.
Low clouds form at altitudes less than 6,500 feet (about 2,000 meters). They are typically known as stratus clouds and cumulus clouds.
Clouds are more likely to form when the air pressure is low. Low air pressure is associated with rising air, which cools and condenses to form clouds. High air pressure is typically associated with sinking air, which inhibits cloud formation.
