What weather does the line cloud mean?

(1) cirrus cloud

Thin and scattered, with fibrous tissue, such as feathers, loose hair or ponytails, hanging high without clouds, orange or red at sunrise and sunset.

Cirrus is the tallest cloud. It appears before the sun reaches the horizon in the morning.

(2) cirrostratus

It is the highest and whitest cloud curtain. When the sun or moon is covered, its outline can still be seen, and a halo often appears around it. There must be cirrocumulus in the dizzy place, but the thick cirrocumulus is pulled to the horizon like a curtain.

(3) cirrocumulus

This kind of cloud rarely appears and occasionally covers the whole day. Fishermen call it mackerel day, because the sky seems to be covered with fish scales, and the individuals are small, white and cloudless, and sometimes wavy. Cirrocumulus mostly appears at the same time as Cirrus or cirrostratus.

(4) Stratospheric clouds

Most of the high-level clouds are covered all day, and when they gradually become thick and low, people feel gloomy. There is usually a light rain before it becomes a cumulonimbus cloud.

On the contrary, cumulus clouds also rose in nimbostratus.

(5) Cumulus clouds

The individuals of the altocumulus are larger than those of cirrocumulus, with clouds in the center, which are often connected into one piece, with wavy bottoms, long rows, or checkerboards, with many styles.

(6) Stratocumulus

Individuals are larger than cumulus clouds, with softer appearance and less obvious structure. If connected together, there are wavy lines and alternating gray shadows at the bottom.

Stratocumulus clouds are mostly like giant rollers, and the bottom of the clouds represents the nest layer. The common sea of clouds in mountainous areas is mostly stratocumulus.

(7) Stratus clouds

Stratocumulus is a uniform gray-white low cloud that looks like fog, but does not touch the ground. When shrouded in the middle of the mountain, the edge has a downward posture, and there is dense fog.

(viii) nimbostratus.

Is a typical bad weather cloud, dark, amorphous, like a broken, so that the sky is dark, whatever belongs to the persistent, must have fallen in the nimbostratus.

(9) Cumulus clouds

It looks like a pile of cotton, with a bumpy top and a bulge like a mound, cauliflower or tower. When the sun shines obliquely, the bright and dark sides of cumulus clouds are obvious. if

In the same direction as the sun, the center is dark and the edges are particularly bright.

(10) Cumulonimbus clouds

It is the densest and largest cloud, with extremely high vertical extension and dark bottom, which is difficult to distinguish. The top rises like a mountain or tower, and there are often anvil-shaped pseudo-cirrus clouds that protrude like giant feather fans. When the cumulonimbus cloud approaches the zenith, there will be a thunderstorm soon.
