Do you mean high-altitude regions? If so, it isn't so much that the cloud is low but that the land is high. The higher the altitude - the best example is a mountaintop - the nearer you will be to the clouds.

High-latituderegions are areas remote from the equator, that is, the polar regions. In the Arctic, for example, the condition of sea ice - which changes seasonally - affects the nature of cloud cover. Cloud properties in these regions have been changing over the past few decades, but the heaviest cloud cover occurs during the warmer months.

As with all terrestrial regions, height, type and density of cloud cover depends on many factors, all of which continually vary. This keeps those who study weather and climates - meteorologists and specialist climatologists - extremely busy.

Is 60 degress latitude low pressure region or high pressure region?

At 60 degrees latitude, the region is typically a high-pressure region due to the sinking air associated with the subtropical high-pressure belts. This creates stable, dry atmospheric conditions with generally clear skies.

What A cool region underneath cloud cover will have a region with no cloud cover?

The temperature of a region with cloud cover is lower than a region without cloud cover. This is due to the absorption of heat of the clouds and the reflection of the water molecules in the clouds of light that causes the heat in the region.


Is a cirrus cloud a funnel cloud?

No. A cirrus cloud is a high, wavy, thin cloud formed of ice crystals. Funnel clouds are usually formed from cumulonimbus clouds (thunderclouds) at lower altitudes.

What happens to a region when you have no cloud cover?

This happens for extended periods of time in some of the world's equatorial desserts. The effect depends on other characteristics of the region (humidity, latitude etc), but the result is usually very high temperatures during the day and very low temperatures at night.


Why is there more rain in Georgia than in Arizona even though they're both on the same latitude?

The geography and weather patterns are different. There is a high pressure system in the Mojave area (Arizona, Nevada, and New Mexico are in the region) which naturally limits cloud formation, which in turn limits rainfall.

What kind of region has high temperatures but a little rain?

A region with high temperatures but little rain is typically a desert region. Deserts often experience extreme heat due to the lack of cloud cover and high levels of sunlight. The limited rainfall in deserts results in dry conditions that contribute to the high temperatures.
