With highly unstable atmospheric conditions, large cumulus may continue to grow into cumulonimbus "calvus" (essentially a very tall congestus cloud that produces thunder), then ultimately into the species "capillatus" when supercooled water droplets at the top of the cloud turn into ice crystals giving it a cirriform appearance. All cloud varieties fall into one of two main groups. One group identifies the
