stratocumulus
Stratocumulus 300- 1400 m: This kind of cloud is also a low cloud system and widely distributed. Our most common cloud type is it, like a big piece of cotton candy. There are many characters, such as bars and blocks, but there is usually a gap in the middle of the cloud.
cumulus
Cumulus 300- 1500m: This kind of cloud is often formed in humid areas, heated and rises, and then the water vapor condenses. It can be divided into light cumulus clouds, broken cumulus clouds and thick cumulus clouds, which are also relatively easy to see. Generally, on a sunny morning, when the sun just rises, you can see that the cloud bottom is flat, the cloud top is convex, and there are many unconnected clouds.
altostratus
High-level cloud 2000-5000m: It belongs to the Zhongyun clan, with a wide range, which can cover the whole sky and make it gloomy. Clouds are dark, and if they are thick enough, they can cover the sun and the moon, and they are fibrous, like putting a large piece of ground glass in the sky.
altocumulus clouds
Cumulus? 2000-6000m: It is also a cloud tribe. This kind of cloud has the most obvious characteristics and can be recognized at a glance. In a big wave shape, arranged in rows. Generally gray or white, the strip is thick in the middle and thin on both sides, and the side away from the sun has a shadow. If the thickness of the altocumulus does not change, it means that the weather is fine; If it gets thicker, it means it will change, rain or snow.
cirrostratus
Cirrostratus? 5000-8000 meters: Magnificent clouds, which cover the sky like a curtain, often accompanied by halo, are composed of ice crystals and can penetrate the light of the sun and the moon.
cirrocumulus
Cirrocumulus: 5500- 10500m: Clouds are very small, arranged in rows or groups like scales. As thin as silk, it can penetrate sunlight. It can also penetrate the moonlight at night, and it is black. If you see this cloud, it means there will be a strong wind. Cool!
So I think the so-called monster I saw may be a strange natural phenomenon that airflow affects the formation of clouds.
