Calvus

(Section 2.2.2.2.14)

Cumulonimbus in which at least some protuberances of the upper part are beginning to lose their cumuliform outlines but in which no cirriform parts can be distinguished. Protuberances and sproutings tend to form a whitish mass, with more or less vertical striations (grooves or channels in cloud formations, arranged parallel to the flow of air and therefore depicting the airflow).
