An anvil head cloud is called a cumulonimbus or a very well developed anvil shape is a cumulonimbus incus. These clouds are usually associated with severe thunderstorms and possibly tornadoes.
An anvil cloud, also known as a cumulonimbus incus, is a large, flat cloud that often forms at the top of a mature thunderstorm. It is typically formed when the updraft of warm air reaches the tropopause and spreads out horizontally. Anvil clouds can indicate severe weather such as heavy rain, thunder, lightning, and sometimes hail.
A thunderhead can also be called a cumulonimbus cloud. This type of cloud is associated with thunderstorms and can be characterized by its towering structure and anvil shape at the top.
A fully developed thunderstorm typically has an anvil shape, with a towering cloud structure known as a cumulonimbus cloud. This cloud can reach high into the atmosphere and have a flat, spreading top due to strong upper-level winds. Thunderstorms produce heavy rain, lightning, thunder, and sometimes hail.
Mammatus. Mammatus is cloud that hangs from an anvil of a mature storm cloud and brings severe weather especially tornadoes. Another one is called Cumulonimbus. These clouds bring VERY heavy rain or thunder storms.
answ2. A cumulus cloud that reaches to great heights will eventually encounter air cold enough to freeze the moisture.[Some of the energy is absorbed by the 'latent heat of fusion' which is when the vapour condenses as liquid water. A smaller quantum of energy is similarly stored as 'latent heat of freezing'.]This temperature gradient will cause vigorous vertical circulation, and will create and store electric charge on some regions.Sometimes the upper layers of the cloud reach a strong cross wind, and in this case, the cloud top will assume the shape of an anvil, and are so called.Cumulus clouds tend to have well defined edges, and have fluffy shapes.
A thundercloud typically appears dark and dense, often towering high into the sky. These clouds can also have a flat base, with a top that may spread out in an anvil shape. Thunderclouds are associated with thunderstorms and can bring heavy rain, lightning, and thunder.

No. The anvil is part of the thunderstorm. Namely it is that part of the cloud that spreads out at the top. Tornadoes form from thunderstorms.
The Cloud forms from UPDRAFTS of 100 MPH and when it hits the Stratsophere it flattens out to form the top of the anvil.
An anvil cloud is an anvil shaped structure at the top of a thunderstorm that results from the updraft hitting stable air, flattening, and spreading out.
The anvil is not part of the tornado, it is part of the parent thunderstorm. The anvil forms when the storm cloud grows upward until hitting a layer of stable air that it cannot rise through. This causes the top of the storm to flatten and spread out.
The anvil is not part of a tornado nor is it directly related to tornadoes. When a thunderstorm forms, is produces a tall cloud called a cumulonimbus. The cloud rises until it reaches a stable layer, at which point the top spreads out flat. This flat top to the thunderstorm cloud is called the anvil. Most tornadoes are produced by a kind of thunderstorm called a supercell. Supercells usually have very well shaped anvils.
The anvil is not actually part of a tornado. it is part of the storm that produces a tornado. Inside a thunderstorm moist air rises as long as it is warmer than its surroundings. However, when the rising cloud of the thunderstorm reaches a comparatively warm layers such as at the top of the troposphere it cannot rise any more, and will spread out, forming a wide, flat top to the storm cloud. This flat top is the anvil.
A thunderhead can also be called a cumulonimbus cloud. This type of cloud is associated with thunderstorms and can be characterized by its towering structure and anvil shape at the top.
Cumulonimbus clouds are large, towering clouds that can extend high into the atmosphere. They often have a flat anvil-shaped top and are associated with thunderstorms, heavy rain, lightning, and sometimes hail. They can appear dark and menacing, with a bubbling or cauliflower-like appearance.
A cumulonimbus cloud is tall, dense, and often has an anvil-shaped top due to its great vertical development. It can appear dark and threatening, and may be associated with heavy rainfall, thunder, lightning, or even hail. Its size and shape make it easily distinguishable from other types of clouds.
A fully developed thunderstorm typically has an anvil shape, with a towering cloud structure known as a cumulonimbus cloud.
