Clouds and auroras 3 December 2015 Jane Golding : Supervising Meteorologist, NSW and ACT Region
Three 'etages' Low etage: surface to 8500 ft Clouds generally composed of water droplets Middle etage: 8500 – 20 000 ft Clouds generally composed of supercooled water droplets High etage: above 20 000 ft Clouds composed mostly of ice crystals
Cloud types Image from NOAA
Cirrus/Cirrocumulus/Cirrostratus
Altostratus/Altocumulus
Nimbostratus
Stratus/Cumulus/Stratocumulus
Cumulonimbus
When do you see Clouds  instability (low level troughs, warm and humid summer time , jet streaks)  Orographically induced (winds hitting slopes)  When cold frontal system approaches, or in unstable mass behind  Stuck under an inversion related to a high pressure system
Which ones are likely to affect Aurora Viewing • Frontal Cloud Bands (within ~8-12 hours of the front arriving) • Large Decks of Stratocumulus
Where do you get cloud information from Bureau 1. Public weather forecasts CAVEAT  spatially and temporarily averaged cloud information, depending on where you get it. http://www.Bureau.gov.au/info/wwords/ 2. Himawari 8 http://satview.Bureau.gov.au

When you look up into the sky, you will often see clouds. No two clouds are the same, and there are many different types of clouds. Different kinds of clouds lead to different types of weather. Cirrus clouds are the highest group of clouds that
