Warm fronts often form on the east side of low-pressure systems where warmer air from the south is pushed north. You will often see high clouds like cirrus, cirrostratus, and middle clouds like altostratus ahead of a warm front. These clouds form in the warm air that is high above the cool air. Warm fronts …
Nimbostratus clouds: rain, rain go away! Altocumulus clouds: warm with a risk of storms, altostratus clouds: expect light rain, sources, cumulonimbus clouds: severe storms, stratus clouds: fog, and cirrostratus clouds: moisture moving in too are a few more items to think about. You might be thinking “How can clouds help predict weather?” Altostratus clouds: expect …
When warm air rises, it expands and cools. Cool air can’t hold as much water vapor as warm air, so some of the vapor condenses onto tiny pieces of dust that are floating in the air and forms a tiny droplet around each dust particle. When billions of these droplets come together, they become a …

Big clouds get bigger while small clouds shrink may seem like a simple concept, but the mechanisms behind how clouds are born, grow and die are surprisingly complex. In the second process, water droplets in warm clouds collide and change their electric charge. Droplets of unlike charge attract one another and merge, thereby growing until …
Clouds are formed by the process of evaporation and condensation. Water evaporates from water bodies and rises up in the air. This air also gets heated. Hot air carrying water vapour rises up. Are clouds evaporation? This process is called evaporation and it’s the start of how clouds are formed. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Alex Novati The …
WHY : Precipitation – What makes clouds, rain, snow, hail and sleet. When warm, wet air rises, it cools, and water vapor condenses out to form clouds. When ice crystals form high up in the cloud, and it’s below the freezing point of water all the way down, then you get snow. It should be …
Clouds are liquid, solid, and gas. Clouds are made up of millions of tiny droplets of water (liquid) all mixed up with particles of dust (solid) and various gases such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen. What makes up the majority of a cloud? Clouds may contain water in a gaseous, liquid and solid form but …
3.1.6.2 Ice Clouds Ice clouds, also called cirrus clouds, are made up of ice crystals and start to form at altitudes of 5.5 km in temperate regions and of 6.5 km in tropical regions, making them the highest clouds in the troposphere. A small seed particle, or INP, is needed for heterogeneous ice nucleation. Cirrus …
Yes, ‘Clouds’ is based on a true story. It is inspired by the book ‘Clouds: A Memoir,’ written by Laura Sobiech about her son’s battle with cancer. She had started writing a blog years ago when Zach was diagnosed, as a way to keep people updated on his treatment. “Clouds” is based on the book …
