Cloud Types Common cloud classifications Clouds are classified into a system that uses Latin words to describe the appearance of clouds as seen by an observer on the ground. The table below summarizes the four principal components of this classification system (Ahrens‚ 1994). Latin Root | | Translation | | Example | cumulus stratus cirrus nimbus | | heap layer curl of hair rain | | fair weather cumulus altostratus cirrus cumulonimbus | Further classification identifies clouds
