The temperature at that elevation is so cold that cirrus clouds are usually composed of ice crystals. The ice crystals are the result of the freezing of super-cooled water drops. This can only happen when the temperatures reach below –38 degrees Celsius. These high-level clouds are white, thin, feathery, and wispy in appearance. Cirrus clouds often mark the start of a warm front, which is an indication of approaching bad weather. They are the fastest moving in the atmosphere because the wind current is very strong that high up. language code: en);
