Climatology
Stratus clouds are low, gray clouds that often cover the entire sky like a blanket, typically resulting in overcast conditions. They form when a layer of stable air rises gently, allowing moisture to condense into a uniform layer. These clouds can lead to light precipitation, often seen as drizzle or mist, which connects them to various weather patterns and cloud formation processes.
