are named according to their shape and heaight.
Cirrostratus is a hin , almost transparent layer of cloud at a high level. Altostratus is a thicker layer of cloud at a higer level. Nimbostratus forms at a lower level, whicle stratus cluods are layers within 500 metres of the Earth's surface .'Puffy' clouds, known as cumulus clouds, are called altocumulus at a high level.When they join together they form stratocumulus.
Cumulonimbus are towering thunder clouds. A third type of cloud is cirrus, wisps of clouds
high in the sky.
