CL-Clouds — CL-Wolken
CL=0   No low clouds existing. Keine tiefe (bzw. CL-)Wolken vorhanden.
 
CL=1
 
Cumulus humilis and / or Cumulus fractus existing. No bad weather clouds. Cumulus humilis und/oder Cumulus fractus vorhanden. Keine Schlechtwetterwolken.
 
CL=2
 
Cumulus mediocris or Cumulus congestus, possibly with Cumulus fractus, Cumulus humilis or Stratocumulus. Minimum level in same height. Cumulus mediocris oder Cumulus congestus, eventuell mit Cumulus fractus, Cumulus humilis oder Stratocumulus. Untergrenzen in gleicher Höhe.
 
CL=3
 
Cumulonimbus calvus; Cumulus, Stratocumulus, Stratus possible. Cumulonimbus calvus, evtl. auch Cumulus, Stratocumulus, Stratus
 
CL=4
 
  Stratocumulus cumulogenitus sind Stratocumulus-Wolken, die aus Cumuluswolken entstanden sind.
CL=5
 
  Stratocumulus, der jedoch keine Mutterwolke hat (das heißt nicht aus Cumuli entstanden ist).
CL=6
 
  Stratus nebulosus und/oder Stratus fractus. Keine Schlechtwetterwolken.
