Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Clouds that appear to slowly spin about a horizontal axis are called roll clouds. Shelf clouds are low, horizontal clouds that attach to the base of a thunderstorm. Anvil clouds are the flat, spreading top of a thunderstorm. Comma clouds are shaped like a comma or a horseshoe and often seen in the cool sector of a mid-latitude cyclone. Arcus clouds are low, horizontal clouds that form at the front of a thunderstorm.
