Do cirrus clouds produce sleet?
Cirrus clouds are high-altitude clouds made of ice crystals and do not produce sleet. Sleet forms when raindrops freeze into ice pellets as they pass through a layer of cold air near the ground. This typically occurs with mid-level clouds like altocumulus or nimbostratus.
Are clouds required for snow?
Yes, clouds are essential for snow to form. Snow forms when water vapor in the air condenses into water droplets on tiny particles in the atmosphere within clouds. These droplets then freeze into ice crystals, which grow and eventually fall to the ground as snow.
Why water vapor is important to weather production?
Water vapor is important because it creates clouds and it's water molecules combine to form water droplets that can either fall to the ground as rain, or freeze and fall to the ground as sleet, snow, or hail.
How does hail from and what type of cloud is it?
Hail forms when updrafts in thunderstorms carry raindrops into colder regions of the atmosphere. As the raindrops freeze, they grow in size and eventually fall to the ground as hailstones. Hail is typically associated with cumulonimbus clouds, which are large, towering clouds that produce thunderstorms.
Stratus clouds at ground level are known as?
its known as fog
What are the types of clouds in order closest to the ground and farthest from the ground?
The types of clouds in order from closest to the ground to farthest from the ground are: Stratus clouds Cumulus clouds Cirrus clouds
Can clouds be on the ground?
Yes, clouds can be on the ground in the form of fog.
Do cirrus clouds produce sleet?
Cirrus clouds are high-altitude clouds made of ice crystals and do not produce sleet. Sleet forms when raindrops freeze into ice pellets as they pass through a layer of cold air near the ground. This typically occurs with mid-level clouds like altocumulus or nimbostratus.
What are clouds called that are close to the ground or on the ground?
the answer is fog..To be mo scientific its called Stratus clouds.
Does lightning start from the ground or from the clouds?
Lightning typically starts from the clouds and travels towards the ground.
How many miles are stratus clouds from the ground?
I'm pretty sure that it is about 6 miles from the ground to the clouds
Are clouds required for snow?
Yes, clouds are essential for snow to form. Snow forms when water vapor in the air condenses into water droplets on tiny particles in the atmosphere within clouds. These droplets then freeze into ice crystals, which grow and eventually fall to the ground as snow.
Are stratus clouds or cirrus clouds closer to the ground?
yes
How do ground level clouds form?
The moisture in the ground combines with the the air to make water vapor, therefore creating clouds at ground level.
When does the troposphere get colder?
The troposphere - the atmosphere layer closest to earth, down to ground level - gets coldest in the wintertime.
Why water vapor is important to weather production?
Water vapor is important because it creates clouds and it's water molecules combine to form water droplets that can either fall to the ground as rain, or freeze and fall to the ground as sleet, snow, or hail.
A patch of ground in direct sunlight will have what a patch of ground shaded by clouds?
A lower air pressure than a patch of ground shaded by clouds :)
