Stratus clouds are not generally associated with poor weather, although they can be accompanied by drizzle, and at higher altitudes, they can be an indicator that rain is on the way.

CumulusThis low cloud with a typical base of below 7,000 feet isa cumulus cloud. These clouds have distinct edges, areusually white, puffy with a popcorn like appearance.They have a noticeable vertical development. Cumulusclouds can be seen isolated as in this picture or groupedtogether is clusters. The cumulus cloud as all low cloudsare most often composed of water droplets, but can canhave ice crystals in colder climates.StratusThis stratus cloud is the lowest of the low clouds. Theyappear as a grey overcast deck, but can be scattered.Because the stratus cloud is low it too has a base below7,000 feet and is made of mostly water droplets. Theindividual stratus cloud has ill-defined edges compared toother low clouds.CirrusThe high altitude cirrus cloud like the one shown here havebases above 18,000 feet. They are mostly made of icecrystals and appear wispy, thin; almost hair-like. Cirrus cloudsgenerally occur in fair weather and point in the direction of airmovement at their elevation.CumulonimbusThe cumulonimbus cloud is the tallest of all clouds. Theycan span all cloud layers and extend to 60,000 feet. Theseclouds can produce lightning, thunder, heavy rains, strongwinds, and tornadoes. Cumulonimbus clouds usually havelarge anvil-shaped tops because of the stronger winds atthose higher levels of the atmosphere.
