Small water drops or ice particles have accumulated in the atmosphere of the Earth and become visible as clouds. Clouds come in a wide range of sizes, shapes, and colours.
- They can have a thin, wispy appearance or a thick, lumpy one. Because the small water droplets inside of clouds are closely packed, they typically appear white because they reflect the majority of sunlight. Our eyes interpret the mixture of all sunlight's wavelengths as white.
- Cirrus, stratus, and cumulus are the three main categories of clouds.
- Wispy, curling or stringy clouds are cirrus clouds. They are frequently found higher than 6,000 metres (20,000 feet) in the atmosphere and are typically formed of ice crystals. Cirrus clouds typically indicate good, sunny weather. Their shape frequently reveals the wind's direction at a high altitude.
- Stratus clouds are stacked and axially stratified. Stratus clouds have the capacity to illuminate a whole sky with a particular pattern. It commonly occur close to Earth. At the tip of a warm frontal, where warmer, moist air is forced up over cold air, stratus clouds frequently form.
- Large and bumpy clouds are called cumulus. Their name is a translation of a Latin word that means "heap" or "pile." They can extend upward into the atmosphere up to a height of 12,000 metres (39,000 feet). Updrafts of warm, humid air that are strong enough to form cumulus clouds.
