  • Cirrocumulus clouds were first described in 1802 as "small, well-defined roundish masses, in close horizontal arrangement or contact."
  • Cirrocumulus clouds have small amounts of liquid water droplets. The clouds are primarily made up of ice crystals, which makes the water in the cloud rapidly freeze, forming cirrostratus clouds and therefore these clouds do not last long. The clouds have the appearance of small, patched rows high in the sky. This is sometimes referred to as a "mackerel sky." At times, cirrocumulus clouds do form a type of sub-precipitation known as virga.
