    Clouds form when warm air rises and cools in the atmosphere, condensing into small droplets of frozen crystals or water. There are four main types of clouds: cirrus clouds which are thin and wispy high-level clouds that appear during good weather; stratus clouds which are low-level flat clouds that tend to cover most of the sky and may produce light rain; cumulus clouds which are big, white, and fluffy vertical clouds that usually mean good weather; and cumulonimbus clouds which are very dark grey vertical clouds that cause thunderstorms with heavy rain, hail, and even tornadoes.
