Clouds

In class we are learning about clouds. There are three basic types. Cumulus, cirrus and stratus clouds.

3 Interesting Facts Are...

* Cumulus clouds look like "piles of cotton balls."
* Stratus clouds turn into fog when they form close to the ground.
* Cirrus clouds are "feathery and fibrous."

In my opinion clouds are really cool. I never knew that they has special names for what they look like. I also never knew that cumulus clouds could produce thunderstorms when they are darker on the bottom. Overall, clouds are a very interesting subject to learn and study about.
