Clouds play a crucial role in weather forecasting, acting as visible indicators of atmospheric
conditions. Their formation, type, and movement provide valuable insights into
temperature, humidity, and wind patterns. Meteorologists observe cloud formations to
predict short-term weather changes, such as the likelihood of rain, storms, or clear skies.

One key aspect of cloud observation is identifying cloud types. For example, cumulonimbus
clouds, often towering and anvil-shaped, are associated with thunderstorms and heavy
MÃ ĐỀ 103 TRANG 5

precipitation. In contrast, cirrus clouds, thin and wispy at high altitudes, often indicate fair
weather in the short term but might signal an approaching warm front.

By analyzing the movement and transformation of clouds, meteorologists can track weather
systems. The direction and speed of cloud movement reveal wind patterns at different
altitudes. Rapidly changing cloud formations, especially the vertical development of
cumulus clouds, often signal unstable atmospheric conditions and a higher chance of
storms.

Understanding the relationship between cloud formations and weather patterns allows
meteorologists to issue accurate forecasts, providing essential information for various
sectors, including agriculture, aviation, and disaster preparedness. Continuous observation
and analysis of clouds remain vital for predicting and mitigating the impacts of weather
events.

Question 31. What is the main idea of the reading passage?

A. Clouds always mean it will rain.

B. Observing clouds is crucial for meteorologists to forecast weather.
C. Clouds are beautiful and interesting to look at.
D. There are many different types of clouds in the sky.

A. Stratus C. Cumulus

Question 35: According to the text, what can rapidly changing cloud formations indicate?
