>>>/sci/ would probably have better answers.
Also I'm pretty sure clouds don't do anything by themselves, or at least you can't calculate just on sight. Should be a function of heat and pressure as well

>>1971132
Thank you!
>>1971168
Gotta ask also there!
Yea but with knowledge of pressure and temperature ,adding direction of wind and outlook of the clouds we can deduce baka.
Thanks for answers guys except this faggot >>1971124

- know the local weather patterns. what direction does weather come from? what geographical features affect weather (such as the fall line, mtn ranges, coasts, etc.)?
- bring a compass so you can tell which direction you will look to for incoming weather. sometimes eyeballing a storm's direction will tell you whether or not it will pass over you or avoid you.
-a triple sensor watch will help you in determining changes in the weather by tracking the barometric pressure

Maybe it came out wrong, but I meant that looking at cloud movements is nice for weather stations as it allows longer predictions, but pressure and humidity should tell you enough to know if the clouds will bring anything and when.
Old people know when it will rain in the afternoon just by those.
Can't help with books, just thought it might be an interesting direction for you to look into. Different kinds of clouds are way interesting though.

I had to study this as part of a guiding course.
There’s a shit ton to learn. We did it for a few hours a week plus a few 1 week block courses.
You’ll need to learn about iso- and topo- maps and their interactions, humidity and temp in relation to altitude, cloud types and what they mean, heaps of shit. Plus you need to follow the weather daily to track patterns and predict.
Also, if you don’t do it all the time, you’ll quickly forget it all like me and 90% of the people I studied with.
I just dug out a manual to try and find a source for you, but I never quoted it sorry.
This is page 1 of many, it just gets complicated after this.
(I didn’t go much for introductions and preambles, this was just a resource for me to refer back to if required.)

eh you can take a course at a flying school they'll teach you some of this stuf. Here's some books published by the FAA

https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Advisory_Circular/AC%2000-6A%20Chap%207-9.pdf
https://www.faa.gov/regulations_policies/handbooks_manuals/aviation/phak/media/14_phak_ch12.pdf

But you have to remember that a lot of it depends on your local geography and the types of weather patterns you get in your area, in that time of year

don't mind him OP he tries to derail every thread where people post OC >>1971124

Cumulonimbus mean big rain (depending on where you are thinder as well). Taller clouds/cumulus mean youre in a cold front. High up wispy clouds mean a warm front is approaching or a front has just passed if theres sparse wisps of cloud.

If you know where you are and where the wind is coming from that should tell you something to. Wind thats travelef over lots of land, particularily if its crossed high land, is unlikely to produce rain, air coming from the sea is more likely to rain.

1) Watch the air pressure - wind is usually from the south-east, wind from the north or west means you are moving into a low pressure zone ie rain is likely
2) look at the high altitude clouds - mares tails rhyme.. good sign of rain
3) look at the sunrise and sunset - red sky in morning = water in coming air, red sky at night water in air that passed you.
