A few cirrocumulus clouds were coming up from the east when we started, but we left them behind, and nothing was visible during the night but a thin hazy veil.
A few cirrocumulus continued to pass over towards east.
Towards afternoon, cirrocumulus and cirrostratus began to appear moving northward.
Examplesofcirrocumulus
cirrocumulus
It is a fairly uncommon phenomenon, most often observed in altocumulus,cirrocumulus, lenticular clouds and cirrus clouds.

Cirrocumuluslenticularis forms when stable air is forced upward; this is usually due to orographic features, but can occur away from mountains as well.

Convection at high altitudes can produce another high-based genus calledcirrocumulus, a pattern of small cloud tufts that contain droplets of supercooled water.

In fact,cirrocumulusfloccus can form fromcirrocumuluscastellanus, being the evolutionary state after the base of the original cloud has dissipated.

The resulting cloud forms may resemble cirrus,cirrocumulus, or cirrostratus, and are sometimes called cirrus aviaticus.

High-tage tropospheric genus-types, "cirrus", "cirrocumulus", and "cirrostratus", particularly show this duality with both short-wave albedo cooling and long-wave greenhouse warming effects.

Unlike other high cirrus and cirrostratus,cirrocumulusincludes a small amount of liquid water droplets, although these are in a supercooled state.

The high-tage clouds are all cirriform, one of which,cirrocumulus, is also cumuliform of limited convection or stratocumuliform.
