What type of clouds are associated with tornadoes and hurricanes?
Tornadoes are associate with cumulonimbus clouds, wall clouds, and funnel clouds. Hurricanes are associated with cumulonimbus clouds and cirrus clouds.
What two clouds are in a tornado?
Tornadoes are most closely associated with wall clouds and funnel clouds, both of which form from cumulonimbus clouds.
What colors are tornado clouds?
The funnel clouds of a tornado often range from white to gray to black.
What are lens- shaped clouds and how are they formed?
Lens shaped clouds are called lenticular clouds. They are usually formed by moist air rising in the high-altitude skies over a mountain or range of mountains.
What part of the hurricane has the strongest winds thickest clouds and heaviest rain?
The eye wall.
Wall clouds can range from a fraction of a?
wall clouds can range from a fraction of a mile up to nearly five miles in diameter, and are normally found in the south or south west (inflow) side of the thunderstorm. when seen from within several miles, many wall clouds exhibit rapid upward motion and cyclonic rotation. however, not all wall clouds rotate. rotating wall clouds usually develop before strong or violent tornadoes, by anywhere from a few minutes up to nearly an hour. wall clouds should be monitored visually for signs of persistent, sustained rotation and/or rapid vertical motion
What are clouds of extreme heights referred to?
cirrocumulus clouds range above 18,000 feet but cumulonimbus clouds range from near ground to above 50,000 feet.
What clouds appear when tornadoes occur?
Tornadoes are produced by cumulonimbus clouds. Other clouds associated with tornadoes include wall clouds and funnel clouds.

What is the wall of clouds that are around the eye of a hurricane called?
It is called the eye wall.
Where are wall clouds located in the atmosphere?
the air does not have walls
What colors are tornado clouds?
The funnel clouds of a tornado often range from white to gray to black.
What is the upper height range for low clouds?
cirrus and cumulonimbus
Which clouds develop tornadoes?
Tornadoes form in thunderstorms, which are composed of cumulonimbus clouds. Usually a tornado will form from a wall cloud that develops are the based of the cumulonimbus cloud, and will develop from a funnel cloud that comes out of the wall cloud.
What are lens- shaped clouds and how are they formed?
Lens shaped clouds are called lenticular clouds. They are usually formed by moist air rising in the high-altitude skies over a mountain or range of mountains.
