There are three different types of clouds, cirrus, cumulus, and stratus. The cloud at the highest altitude is cirrus. The cloud at the middle altitude is cumulus. The cloud at the lowest altitude is stratus. Cirrus clouds are very thin and wispy. They are so high in the sky that they are made of ice crystals. Cirrus clouds are also called horse tails. Cumulus clouds are very puffy. Cumulus clouds look like cotton balls. They are the clouds that people see all the different shapes in. Stratus clouds are very flat. They are the clouds that usually block out the sun. Stratus clouds cover the whole sky like a blanket. They are very close to the ground and form in layers. Fog is a type of stratus cloud. Cirrus clouds usually bring a change in weather. Cirrus clouds are usually seen on windy days. Cumulus clouds are mostly seen on sunny days. If cumulus clouds get bigger and darker they could bring thunderstorms. Nimbostratus clouds (a type of stratus cloud) bring continuous rain or snow. Clouds help predict wether by how they look and how fast they are moving if it is very windy.

i have learned about three main types of clouds.They are Stratus Cirrus and Cumulus. Cirrus clouds are have the highest altitude of coluds in the sky.They for from ice crystals.They form on windy days.Some people say they even look like horsetails.They are very thin and wispy.They predict a change in weather.Cumulus clouds are in the middle altitude.They usually have a defined bottom.THose are the cloud s that you can see shapes and formations.They are formed from condenced water vapor.You usually see cumulus clouds on pretty days.If they get bigger and more black on the bottom,the can bring thunderstorms.Stratus clouds are very flat and they look like they are a gray blanket that completely covers the sky.They are also have the lowest altitude of clouds in the sky.If they get low enough to touch the ground,they become fog.They predict very heavy contienous precipitation.

I've lerned 3 different typs of clouds. there are cirrus,cumulas,and straus.Cirrus tell you that there is going to be a change of weather. Andlook like hrse teils in the sky .Cumulas tell you that it well be a sunny day. And it look like big fluffy cotten ball .But if the bottom of it turn black that is a stratus cloud. Stratus clouds make rain or snow.it look like a gray blanket.
