it usually occurs in the afternoon
Funnel clouds most often occur in the spring and early summer and in the later afternoon and early evening.
Cumulus clouds are thick puffy clouds that occur at middle altitudes, typically between about 2,000 to 20,000 feet. They are often associated with fair weather, but can develop into larger storm clouds known as cumulonimbus clouds.
Altocumulus clouds, specifically altocumulus undulatus, can have ripples arranged in lines. These clouds often occur at mid-level altitudes and are associated with atmospheric instability and turbulence.
Lightning can occur without clouds when there is a discharge of electricity between the ground and the atmosphere, often due to the buildup of static electricity in the air. This phenomenon is known as "ground-to-cloud" lightning.
lightning bolts occur in the clouds.
Cumulonimbus
The shape and height of clouds determine the kind of weather that is likely to occur. For example, cumulus clouds indicate fair weather, while nimbostratus clouds often bring steady rain. Additionally, the height of clouds can indicate the stability of the atmosphere and the potential for storms.
Clouds and precipitation
Cirrocumulus cloud is a clous that often appears at high altitudes.
Lightning typically travels from clouds to the ground, but it can also occur between clouds or within a cloud. This happens when electrical charges build up in the clouds and discharge towards the ground, creating a lightning strike.
Cumulus clouds are layered but puffy clouds that occur at middle and lower elevations. They are typically associated with fair weather, but can develop into larger storm clouds if conditions become more unstable.
