No.
Cumulus clouds are the fairly small, puffy white clouds that usually come with nice weather.
Cumulonimbus clouds are enormous towering clouds often called thunderheads as it is these clouds that become thunderstorms.
Yes, cumulus clouds can develop into cumulonimbus clouds through a process called cloud growth. Cumulonimbus clouds are larger and taller versions of cumulus clouds that can bring thunderstorms and severe weather.
Thunderstorms are associated with cumulonimbus clouds. However, cumulonimbus clouds do start off as cumulus.
No, cumulonimbus and cumulus clouds are not the same. Cumulus clouds are fluffy and usually indicate fair weather, while cumulonimbus clouds are larger and can develop into thunderstorms, bringing heavy rain, lightning, and strong winds.
This is called a cumulonimbus cloud.
Increase in humidity, and decrease in temperature.
Yes, cumulus clouds can develop into cumulonimbus clouds through a process called cloud growth. Cumulonimbus clouds are larger and taller versions of cumulus clouds that can bring thunderstorms and severe weather.
Thunderstorms are associated with cumulonimbus clouds. However, cumulonimbus clouds do start off as cumulus.
Yes. It is in its own family, but it's related to, and develops from, the cumulus. The usual progression is: Cumulus humilis Cumulus mediocris Cumulus congestus Cumulonimbus
No, cumulonimbus and cumulus clouds are not the same. Cumulus clouds are fluffy and usually indicate fair weather, while cumulonimbus clouds are larger and can develop into thunderstorms, bringing heavy rain, lightning, and strong winds.
The low puffy white clouds that can change into cumulonimbus clouds are called cumulus clouds. Cumulus clouds are often associated with fair weather, but can grow into cumulonimbus clouds, which are tall, dense, and produce thunderstorms.
No. Cumulonimbus clouds are thunderheads. Cumulus clouds usually indicate fair weather.
"Light, Fluffy clouds" are called cumulus; However, there are different types of cumulus. The smallest formation are called cumulus humilis and they are wider than they are tall. The next biggest formation is called cumulus mediocris and their width and heigth are about the same. Then comes cumulus congestus, they can get pretty big and are usually taller than they are wide. The next stage up is cumulonimbus. They're are many types of cumulonimbus as well. Such as cumulonimbus calvus, cumulonimbus /w/ pileus, and the most mature formation, cumulonimbus incus. (Incus produce the most violet weather.)
Cumulonimbus and Cumulus
The cloud is a cumulonimbus.
Depends which type of cumulus.... cumulonimbus is thunderstorm clouds, regular cumulus clouds are the white puffy clouds that have no precipitation
Cumulus clouds can produce rain if they grow large and tall enough to develop into cumulonimbus clouds, which are known for generating thunderstorms and precipitation. When cumulus clouds reach this stage, they can release rain.
