They form on the under side of mountains.
What are the four levels of cloud heights?
High cloud, middle cloud, low cloud, and anvil heat.
What are the names of clouds in each cloud level?
Noctilucent clouds are the highest and least understood. Cirrus and cirrostratus are the high-type clouds. Any high cloud will have the prefix "cirr".
Cloud prefix meaning middle?
The mid-altitude clouds are given the prefix, "Alto." Alto means high. These clouds are between 6000 and 20,000 feet. There is no prefix meaning middle for clouds.
Where is this cloud found in the sky high middle or low?
It can be found in all, but you will find different clouds in different sections.
Can you name clouds?
Yes. The highest clouds are the cirrus clouds, which are thin, wispy, and white, and there are cirro-cumulus clouds, which are puffy clouds. The middle clouds are the altostratus clouds which blanket the sky. There is also the altocumulus clouds which is also a puffy cloud. Lastly, there is the cumulus cloud which is as well puffy. Finally, we have the lowest clouds. the first one is the stratocumulus cloud which is ALSO puffy. there is the nimbostratus cloud which produces rain. then there is the stratus cloud, also know as fog. Finally there is the cumulonibus cloud, also known as a thunderhead. it has not either a high, middle, or low cloud. it stretches from the high clouds to the low clouds. as you can guess by its name, it produces heavy rain and thunderstorms. There are many clouds with the same features but an easy way to remember them is by the parts of its name: cirro/cirrus- high alto- middle cumulus/cumulo- puffy nimbo/nimbus- produces rain stratus/strato- low
Are cummulus clouds high middle or low clouds?
middle clouds
What is the name of the cloud that is a high wispy sunny weather cloud?

Is the cirrus cloud the highest cloud?
No, the highest cloud is the noctilucent cloud, which forms in the mesosphere. Cirrus clouds are high altitude clouds, but not the highest.
Explain why a cumulonimbus cloud is not considered to be a low middle or high cloud?
A cumulonimbus cloud is not considered a low, middle, or high cloud because it can span multiple vertical layers of the atmosphere. It is a vertically developed cloud that can extend from low to high altitudes, reaching heights of over 50,000 feet. Cumulonimbus clouds are known for their towering structure and are associated with thunderstorms, heavy precipitation, and severe weather.
Is a cirrus a high or low cloud?
A cirrus cloud is a high cloud, typically found at elevations above 20,000 feet. These wispy clouds are composed of ice crystals and are known for their thin, feathery appearance.
Is a cirrocumulus cloud a rain cloud?
No. those clouds are to high to produce precipitation.
