Because stratus clouds form at such a low altitude (typically below 2,000 ft, but can form as high as 4,000 ft), the droplets within the clouds remain in liquid form.

Most of the clouds at the lower levels were cumulus and stratus clouds. Temperature (red line) and dew point (green line) are measured with height throughout the atmosphere.

Some are low-level clouds that exist below 6,500 feet, such as cumulus, stratus, and stratocumulus. Others are mid-level—including altocumulus, nimbostratus, and altostratus—and appear between ...
