If the air is dry, very little cloud will form. Stratus cloud will form if the air is moist and stable, cumulus and cumulonimbus, ... Sometimes convection occurs in combination with the mechanical turbulence and then cumulus clouds will develop and will be embedded in the stratocumulus layer. If the air is very stable,

Large particles usually will not remain airborne for long periods, ... Often, there may be layers of stable air in the atmosphere. These generally cause the vertical heap clouds to spread out horizontally. ... Rarely, cirrus clouds, which are very high in elevation, may release ice crystals that form in the supercooled air.

Where stable moist air flows over a mountain or a range of mountains, a series of large-scale standing waves may form on the downwind side. Lenticular clouds sometimes form at the crests of these waves. ... Say what you will about the mammatus clouds, I always associate those with nasty weather, usually hail. ... Very beautiful pics,

Cold air passing over warmer water will also produce stratocumulus. ... While these clouds occur year round, they are not very frequent and are usually present with other cloud types. ... These clouds form when the air is stable downwind of the mountain, the wind flows over the mountain in a wave-like pattern, and lenticular clouds...

If the air is stable, ... In Unit 4, we learned that as a parcel of air cools, its relative humidity increases. If the parcel cools enough, 100-percent relative humidity, or its dew point, will be reached. At that point clouds form. Saturated air that continues to rise gives up more and more of its bound moisture as it cools.

Cumulonimbus Heavy dense cloud with a large vertical extent, in the form of a mountain or huge tower. Part of its upper portion is usually smooth, fibrous, ... If the air is very stable and dry, this layer will be too thin for clouds to form. In highly stable and relatively moist air, stratiform clouds will appear.

The warmer the air, ... In general, an unstable or conditionally unstable atmosphere is more conducive to the development of clouds and precipitation. Sometimes a parcel can be forced to rise in a stable environment, but the atmosphere strongly resists upward motion and any clouds that form are usually fairly thin and flat.
