AltocumulusA cloud of a class characterized by globular masses or rolls in layers or patches, the individual elements being larger and darker than those of cirrocumulus and smaller than those of stratocumulus. These clouds are of medium altitude, about 8000-20,000 ft (2400-6100 m).

AltocumulusGrey to white clouds that form in groups or globular masses and look like rolls in layers or patches. When holding your extended hand to the sky, they are about the size of your thumb. Alto means high while cumulus means heap and signifies convection. These clouds often resemble "sheepback", usually forming after a cold front. But on a wa [..]

AltocumulusComposed of flattened, thick, gray, globular masses, this middle cloud genus is primarily made of water droplets. In the mid-latitudes, cloud bases are usually found between 8,000 and 18,000 feet. A defining characteristic is that it often appears as a wavy billowy layer of cloud, giving it the nickname of "sheep" or "woolpack" [..]

Altocumulus(Ac) Mid-level cloud (bases generally 2000 - 8000m), made up of grey, puffy masses, sometimes appearing in parallel waves or bands. An indicator of mid-level instability. Altocumulus can take on various forms such as Ac Lenticularis, Ac Undulatus, Ac Castellanus, Altocumulus 'mackerel sky'.
