Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nimbostratus clouds are low-lying dark gray clouds that are associated with precipitation. Cumulonimbus clouds are also associated with precipitation, but they are tall and towering rather than low-lying. Altostratus and cirrostratus clouds are both mid-level clouds that do not typically produce precipitation. Cirrus clouds are high-level clouds that are often thin and wispy.
