an alto cumulus cloud is just a broken up cumulus cloud
Alto cumulus clouds are mid-level clouds that form at altitudes of 6,500 to 20,000 feet. They appear as white or gray patches or layers of clouds and often indicate instability in the atmosphere. Alto cumulus clouds can sometimes signal the approach of a weather change.
A cumulus cloud is thick and puffy in appearance. These clouds are common in fair weather but can grow into larger storm clouds if conditions change.
Cumulus clouds are typically closer to the Earth than cirrus clouds. Cumulus clouds are generally found at lower altitudes, while cirrus clouds are found at higher altitudes.
The first stage of a thunderstorm's development is the cumulus stage, where warm air rises and condenses to form cumulus clouds. This stage is characterized by the growth of towering clouds and the absence of precipitation.
"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.)

Alto cumulus (Ac) - the name derives from the Latin words altus = high and cumulus = mass or heap. Alto cumulus is a member of the ten fundamental cloud types (or cloud genera). It is a middle-level cloud, thus they usually form between 2 to 7 kilometers (6,500 to 22,000 ft).
Alto cumulus clouds are mid-level clouds that form at altitudes of 6,500 to 20,000 feet. They appear as white or gray patches or layers of clouds and often indicate instability in the atmosphere. Alto cumulus clouds can sometimes signal the approach of a weather change.
Alto cumulus clouds are mid-level clouds typically found between 6,500 to 20,000 feet in the atmosphere. They are characterized by white or gray patches, sheets, or layers, often arranged in rows. These clouds usually indicate unsettled weather and can sometimes develop into thunderstorms.

Cumulus, cumulonimbus, stratus, nimbo-stratus, cirrus and alto-stratus. Take your pick.
The six main types of clouds are cirrus, cumulus, stratus, nimbus, alto, and stratocumulus clouds. Each type has distinct characteristics and is classified based on its altitude, shape, and composition.
