Cirrocumulus stratiformis is a type of cirrocumulus cloud. The name cirrocumulus stratiformis is derived from Latin , meaning "stretched out". [ 2 ] Cirrocumulus stratiformis occurs as very small cirrocumulus clouds that cover a large part of the sky.
Cirrocumulus stratiformis undulatus (V-17) Cirrocumulus lenticularis undulatus [12] (V-18) Lacunosus Cirrocumulus with large clear holes; normally associated with stratiformis and castellanus species (also with cumuliform floccus species). Stratocumuliform lacunosus Cirrocumulus stratiformis lacunosus (V-19) Cirrocumulus castellanus lacunosus ...
Cirrocumulus is one of the three main genus types of high-altitude tropospheric clouds, the other two being cirrus and cirrostratus. [3] They usually occur at an altitude of 5 to 12 km (16,000 to 39,000 ft), however they can occur as low as 10,000 ft (3.0 km) in the arctic and weather reporting standards such as the Canadian MANOBS suggests heights of 29,000 ft (8.8 km) in summer and 26,000 ft ...

A fallstreak hole (also known as a cavum, [1] hole punch cloud, punch hole cloud, skypunch, cloud canal or cloud hole) is a large gap, usually circular or elliptical, that can appear in cirrocumulus or altocumulus clouds. The holes are caused by supercooled water in the clouds suddenly evaporating or freezing, and may be triggered by passing ...

Cirrocumulus floccus appears as small tufts of cloud with rounded heads, but ragged bottoms. The cloud can produce virga , precipitation that evaporates before reaching the ground. [ 2 ] Like cirrocumulus castellanus , cirrocumulus floccus is an indicator of atmospheric instability at the level of the cloud. [ 3 ]
