Explanation:

Names for clouds

Stratus/strato: flat/layered and smooth.

Cumulus/cumulo: heaped up/puffy, like cauliflower.

Cirrus/cirro: high up/wispy.

Alto: medium level.

Nimbus/Nimbo: rain-bearing cloud.

For identification purposes, you need be con- cerned only with the more basic cloud types, which are divided into four "families." The families are: high clouds, middle clouds, low clouds, and clouds with extensive vertical development.Low-level clouds (cumulus, stratus, stratocumulus) that lie below 6,500 feet (1,981 m) Middle clouds (altocumulus, nimbostratus, altostratus) that form between 6,500 and 20,000 feet (1981–6,096 m) High-level clouds (cirrus, cirrocumulus, cirrostratus) that form above 20,000 feet (6,096 m)
