The final form taken by a growing cumulus cloud is the cumulonimbus cloud, which is very tall and dense.
The tower of a cumulonimbus cloud can soar 23 km into the atmosphere, although most commonly they stop growing at an
altitude of 6 km.
Even small cumulonimbus clouds appear very large in comparison to other cloud types. They can signal
the approach of stormy weather, such as thunderstorms or blizzards.

Next Topic: Stratocumulus Clouds
A nimbostratus cloud is similar to a stratus cloud in its formless, smooth appearance.
However, a nimbostratus cloud is darker than a stratus cloud, because it is thicker.
Unlike a stratus cloud, a nimbostratus cloud typically brings with it the threat of moderate to heavy precipitation.
In some cases, the precipitation may evaporate before reaching the ground, a phenomenon known as virga.
