When a tornado forms it often produces a funnel cloud.
The type of cloud produces heavy rain lightning thunder hail and strong wind is called cumulonimbus.
Cloud seeding involves introducing substances such as silver iodide or potassium iodide into a cloud to encourage precipitation. These substances provide nuclei around which water droplets can form, helping to increase the likelihood of rainfall or snowfall. The effectiveness of cloud seeding can vary depending on factors such as cloud type and atmospheric conditions.
The type of cloud that produces thunderstorms is called a cumulonimbus cloud. These clouds are large, towering clouds that can reach high altitudes and are associated with heavy rainfall, thunder, lightning, and sometimes hail.
produces light rain or snowfall
cumulus cloud
The type of cloud that produces light to heavy continuous rain is typically the nimbostratus cloud. These clouds are thick, gray, and cover the sky, leading to prolonged precipitation. Unlike cumulonimbus clouds, which produce heavy rain but often in short bursts, nimbostratus clouds provide steady, consistent rainfall over an extended period.
