Cirrus clouds are primarily made out of ice crystals.
The clouds that are made of ice crystals are the cirrusclouds.
A cloud is a dense visible mass of suspended water droplets or ice crystals in the atmosphere.
A cloud is composed of water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. So, the chemical formula for a cloud would be H2O (water) or H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) when in the form of ice crystals.
They are made of bolth because they are vertically developed. The bottom is made of water, and as they develop higher, become ice.
When strong winds toss ice crystals up and down in a cloud, it can lead to the formation of hail. As the ice crystals are carried up and down in the cloud, they encounter different temperature zones that cause them to grow larger. Eventually, the ice crystals become too heavy to be supported by the wind and fall to the ground as hail.
Mostly ice crystals.
The thin and wispy cirrus cloud is made up of mostly ice crystals.

The clouds that are made of ice crystals are the cirrusclouds.
When the temperature of a cloud is below -18 degrees Celsius, the cloud consists almost entirely of ice crystals. Water droplets freeze around condensation nuclei at these temperatures, forming ice crystals that make up the cloud.
A cloud is a dense visible mass of suspended water droplets or ice crystals in the atmosphere.
The high atmosphere is very cold. so as soon as a gas cloud touches the high atmosphere it turns into a ice crystals.
ice crystals, dew drops, extremely cold rain drops
Water vapour - just like all clouds !
