Nimbostratus Clouds

A Nimbostratus cloud is characterized by a formless cloud layer that is almost uniformly dark gray. “Nimbo” is from the Latin word “nimbus”, meaning rain. It is a stratiform cloud that produces rain, developing cloud bases between the surface and 10000 ft (3000 m).[citation needed] Nimbostratus usually has a thickness of 2000 meters. In rare cases, Nimbostratus can be very thin and accompanied by a separate layer of altostratus divided by a cloudless layer. Though found worldwide, nimbostratus is found more commonly in the middle latitudes.
