File:Cumulonimbus calvus cloud over the Gulf of Mexico in Galveston, Texas.jpg[edit]
Hi, Matthew. IMHO this photo shows Cumulonimbus capillatus cloud, not Cumulonimbus calvus. The cloud contains a sort of developing fibrous „plume“ at the apex rather than a “whitish mass” without fibrous or striated parts. You can compare Cumulonimbus calvus vs Cumulonimbus capillatus in WMO International Cloud Atlas. Greetings Logi Aer (talk) 21:36, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I did some more research on Cumulonimbus capillatus vs Cumulonimbus calvus, though I do agree it looks a lot like a capillatus but I still think it's a calvus. According to other places where I read about the clouds, such as https://whatsthiscloud.com/cloud-types/cumulonimbus and https://meteorologytraining.tpub.com/14269/css/14269_24.htm the capillatus has a flattened and or hairy top, whereas the calvus has the puffy top which I believe the cloud in my photo has. I am open to input from more people to see what they think as well. Matthew T Rader (talk) 14:32, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
- The boundaries between cloud species are fairly fluid, so when dealing with a transitional form the distinction can be difficult and leaves some room for interpretation. It's certain that this is Cumulonimbus. Nevertheless, I personally feel that this is not a typical calvus, and therefore I would not place this photo as representative of this species. Agree that it would be nice if someone else would rate it. Logi Aer (talk) 20:40, 25 July 2021 (UTC))
