High- and Medium-Level Clouds

Clouds, composed of water, are influenced by air pressure, temperature, and humidity. High-level clouds, like cirrus, cirrocumulus, and cirrostratus, form in the upper troposphere and stratosphere, appearing transparent due to low moisture. Medium-level clouds, such as altostratus and altocumulus, are denser and allow sunlight to pass through. Lower-level clouds significantly impact weather, differentiating between sunny and stormy days.
