🔍 Key Concepts

• High-level clouds vs. middle and low-level clouds • Clouds composed of ice crystals rather than water droplets • Typical appearance and altitude of cirrus, stratus, cumulus, and nimbostratus clouds

💭 Think About

• Which of these four cloud types is normally seen at the highest altitudes in the sky? • Which cloud type is usually thin and wispy and often seen on fair-weather days high above other clouds? • Which of these names is commonly associated with layered low clouds or rain clouds, and would therefore not fit "very high" and "all ice"?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which named cloud family is classified as a high-level cloud in basic meteorology references • Check which cloud type is described as being made entirely of ice crystals • Eliminate any cloud types that are usually low or middle level and mainly water droplets rather than ice
