Definition
A type of cloud that combines characteristics of both cumulus clouds (puffy and white) and cirrus clouds (wispy and high-altitude).
Etymology
From Latin 'cumulus' (heap) + 'cirrus' (lock of hair, wisps). Coined in 19th-century meteorology to classify clouds showing hybrid characteristics of multiple cloud types.
Kelly Says
Cumulocirrus clouds are atmospheric shape-shifters that can signal changing weather—they're like nature's warning signs that the weather system is shifting from one pattern to another.
