Stratus Clouds

Stratus clouds are a type of cloud that is often seen in mid-levelled altitudes, typically above the troposphere.

They are formed when the air is too cold for water vapor to condense into droplets, but not cold enough for the droplets to freeze into ice crystals.

Stratus clouds are often associated with light to moderate precipitation, and can produce a halo or a ring around the sun.

But have you ever wondered, what lies beneath the Stratus clouds?
