Stratus Clouds

As defined by the World Meteorological Association, this is a generally grey cloud layer with a fairly uniform base.  It may drizzle or show ice prisms or produce snow grains.  When the sun is visible through the cloud, its outline is clearly discernable.  Stratus does not produce a sun halo except at very low temperatures.

 


Our website is dedicated to promoting interest in and better understanding of weather. WeatherWing has been the #1 Weather Observer Certification Training source for Oil and Aviation Interests in the Gulf of Mexico since 1998.

"I'd worked as an observer for years, but needed to re-certify.  I learned more in this course than I ever imagined I could and I passed the exam with flying colors. I am also definately a better observer"  TS, Louisiana


I knew nothing about weather at all.  My new job depended on passing the weather observer certification test.  Thanks to the patience and personal attention you gave us all, the entire class passed. JB, Texas


"When my company sent me to this class I thought I didn't need the training.  I was wrong.  Thanks"   RB, Texas


You are the "Gold Standard" of teaching.  Absolutely the best teacher I have ever had.  DG, Louisiana
