Nimbus is a Latin word meaning cloud or rain storm. Nimbo is a prefix and nimbus is a suffix. An example would be: Nimbostratus, a precipitating cloud.
Nimbus is a Latin word meaning cloud or rain storm. The prefix nimbo- or the suffix -nimbus indicates a precipitating cloud; for example, a nimbostratus cloud is a precipitating stratus cloud, and a cumulonimbus cloud is a precipitating cumulus cloud. And it starts from the bottom.
Stratus means "layer", and nimbus means "cloud". Therefore, it means "layered cloud".
what happens to a nimbostratus cloud
Nimbostratus clouds cannot produce rain.
No. A Stratus Cloud is just a cloud that spreads around the sky. Nimbostratus clouds are the same thing but Nimbostratus clouds have thunder storms in them.
Nimbostratus clouds derive their name from the latin word nimbus, which means "rainy cloud" and stratus, which means "to cover with a layer".
The Latin meaning of virgo is virgin.
The nimbostratus cloud is a somewhat shapeless, widespread, low-sitting cloud which broadly distributes precipitation. The nimbostratus cloud is usually an indication of steady, consistent rainfall.
The rain clouds that accompany a warm front are primarily nimbostratus clouds. Once we flew through the thin nimbostratus layer, the sky above was bright and blue.
