Have you ever looked at the clouds and wondered how they form, impact the weather or why they are different shapes and sizes? I've created a basic cloud ...

Get ready for the heat because a ridge of high pressure will bring very hot weather this week, peaking on Wednesday and ...

Ohio to experience calm weather with high pressure bringing dry conditions and normal temperatures before a mid-week shift to ...

Stratus: Flat, uniform gray clouds that can cover the entire sky like a blanket. These often bring light drizzle or mist. Stratocumulus: Low, lumpy clouds that can form in patches or sheets with ...

These unique clouds can be found amongst two cloud types: altocumulus and stratocumulus. These two cloud types are low to mid level clouds and are common ahead of storms, but added turbulence can ...

Adding to the complexity are the substantial differences in cloud dynamics between two main stratocumulus regions on Earth, namely the tropical Pacific and Atlantic, based on observations.

This particular stratocumulus deck that was penetrated has a depth of approximately 2,000 feet. The liquid water content is nearly zero at the cloud base and steadily increases to over 0.5 grams ...

Clouds require moisture to form, and moist stratocumulus clouds sit just underneath a dry layer of air about one mile high. If temperatures warm, hot air from below can disturb that dry layer ...

There are three main types of lenticular clouds: altocumulus standing lenticular (ACSL), stratocumulus standing lenticular (SCSL), and cirrocumulus standing lenticular (CCSL), varying in ...

Mid-level clouds include altostratus and altocumulus, while at lower levels, you can observe stratocumulus, nimbostratus, and cumulonimbus clouds (with “nimbus” meaning precipitation in Latin).

Left: Stratocumulus clouds were present behind this cold front at the time of the accident. Colors on this infrared satellite image represent the cloud top temperature in degrees Celsius on the ...
