\nCumulonimbus clouds are towering, vertically developing clouds that are often associated with thunderstorms. They grow from cumulus clouds, specifically from the stage known as cumulus congestus, which are towering cumulus clouds. The rapid vertical development fueled by strong updrafts transforms cumulus congestus into cumulonimbus.
\n<\/section>\n
\nClouds are classified by their form and altitude. Cumulus clouds are puffy, heap-like clouds that develop vertically. Cumulonimbus is the most vertically developed type of cumulus cloud.
\n<\/section>\n
\nNimbostratus is a low, layered cloud that produces continuous rain or snow. Altostratus is a middle-altitude, layered cloud. Cirrocumulus is a high-altitude cloud composed of ice crystals, appearing as small puffy masses in rows. These are distinct cloud types and not developmental stages of cumulonimbus.
