| Cirrocumulus is sometimes referred to as a mackerel sky because of the shapes it takes on. |
| Cirrocumulus undulatus are patches or layers of small puffy clouds arranged in patterns. |
| He added three combined terms: cirrocumulus, cirrostratus and cumulostratus. |
| They are similar to the higher cirrocumulus, but are larger and have dark, shadowy sides. |
| The breeze was soft, but bracingly cool, and the deep blue of the sky was checkered with a high cirrocumulus web, glinting golden and magenta in the glancing sunlight. |
| Towards afternoon, cirrocumulus and cirrostratus began to appear moving northward. |
