Can a tornado form in a blizzard?
Not in the blizzard itself, no. In some cases the same storm system can produce tornadoes in one area blizzard conditions in another, but these areas will remain separate from one another. For a northern hemisphere system, blizzard conditions are most likely to occur in the northwestern part of the storm while tornadoes and thunderstorms will more likely occur in the southeastern portion.
What are the differences between cumulus clouds and cumulonimbus clouds?
Cumulus clouds are generally fairly small and not very tall. These clouds typically have flat bottoms and billowing tops. They have weak updrafts and often indicate calm weather.
Cumulonimbus clouds are large and usually very tall. They have strong updrafts and typically have flat bottoms and flat tops, forming an anvil shape. Cumulonimbus clouds bring thunderstorms.
What is the temperature of water vapour?
It starts from 100 celcius in 1atm and can be risen further.
At lower pressures eg on tops of mountains, it can be lower. Water boils when the pressure of water vapour exceeds the external atmospheric pressure. Below that, any bubble of water vapour which might start to form is immediately compressed back to liquid.
Is a puffy cloud that appears to rise from a flat bottom?
a cloud that forms a layer with other flat,clouds is a
What kind of clouds occur at relatively high altitudes and have a fibrous or wispy appearance?
Cirrus ... they are usually at 16,500 to 42500 ft. and, are sometimes called Mare's Tails.
Do warm and cold air make rain?
It depends on the amount of moisture present. If there is enough the warm air mass, which is usually moister, gets lifted, causing it to cool and the moisture in it to condense.
Why are clouds made of soft fluffy cotton?
They aren't. Clouds are made of water droplets or ice crystals depending on the type.
The billowing shape of some clouds is produced by the expansion and upward movement of warm air that is cooled as it rises.
What front causes precipitation to fall for longer periods of time but less intensely?
Does a cold front cause precipitation to fall for longer periods of time but less intensely
No, they are not. An opaque object lets no light through at all. Marble counter tops, pieces of plywood or wallboard, sheet metals are examples of things that are opaque. Clouds are translucent. You cannot see any detail through them, but you can see that light is passing through.
Why do clouds release precipitation?
Cloud formation takes place when the temperature drops. If the temperature drops to the "dew point" droplet formation takes place. Usually for a droplet to form it takes a "nucleus of condensation" which is a speck of dust or something like that. There is lots of dust in the air, thus droplets can freely form.
The atmosphere contains lots of moisture and when the air cools it cant hold the moisture any longer thus we get rain.
So if a nucleus of condensation is present and the temperature drops, we get droplet formation.
What is the definition of wall cloud?
A wall cloud is a large lowering of a rain free cloud base often associated with the rotating updraft of a thunderstorm known as a mesocyclone.
What is a short answer for how clouds form?
Dust in the atmosphere attract water vapor which gathers together to form clouds.
Should you release air out of air tanks on trucks when its cold?
Yes
Where I work if the tanks aren't drained before you go home you will be punished.
Water can build up in the tanks, especially in cold weather and valves will freeze and everything grinds to a halt.

How do you describe a cumulonimbus cloud?
it is a dark, heavy cloud. also called a thunderhead. usually results in short, heavy rainfall.

Can Clouds have both large and small droplets mixed together?
yes they all attach into a big fat cloud
