Abstract
SO much attention has been given of late years to the study of clouds, and so many names have been suggested by different writers for the same form of cloud, that the whole question of cloud forms and cloud names must soon be referred to an International Congress. A few remarks on certain broad facts connected with the shapes of clouds, and on the fundamental principles by which weather forecasts are deduced from these forms, may therefore be acceptable to those who have not given special attention to the subject.
