Cloud altocumulus cloud has been given the Latin name "asperitas". The supplementary feature "cavum" is a circular fall-streak hole that occasionally forms in a thin layer of supercooled altocumulus or cirrocumulus. Fall streaks consisting of virga or wisps of cirrus are usually seen beneath the hole as ice crystals fall out to a lower altitude. This type of hole is usually larger than typical lacunosus holes. A "murus" feature is a cumulonimbus wall cloud with a lowering, rotating cloud base than can lead to the development of tornadoes. A "cauda" feature is a tail cloud that extends horizontally away from the
Cirrocumulus cloud this may also be seen in conjunction with showers and thunderstorms). If it is seen after rain it usually means improving weather. Cirrocumulus cloud Cirrocumulus is one of the three main genus-types of high-altitude tropospheric clouds, the other two being cirrus and cirrostratus. They usually occur at an altitude of to . Like lower altitude cumuliform and stratocumuliform clouds, cirrocumulus signifies convection. Unlike other high-altitude-tropospheric clouds like cirrus and cirrostratus, cirrocumulus includes a small amount of liquid water droplets, although these are in a supercooled state. Ice crystals are the predominant component, and typically, the ice crystals cause the supercooled
