'''Cumulus congestus clouds''', also known as '''towering cumulus''', are a form of [[cumulus cloud]] that can be based in the low or middle height ranges. They achieve considerable vertical development in areas of deep, moist [[Atmospheric convection|convection]]. They are an intermediate stage between [[Cumulus mediocris cloud|cumulus mediocris]] and [[Cumulonimbus cloud|cumulonimbus]].

[[Pyrocumulus cloud|Pyrocumulus]] (No official abbreviation) is a free convective cloud associated with volcanic eruptions and large-scale fires.

Cumulus congestus will mature into [[cumulonimbus calvus]] under conditions of sufficient [[Atmospheric instability|instability]]. This transformation can be seen by the presence of smooth, fibrous, or striated aspects assumed by the cloud's upper part. This cloud type produces [[precipitation (meteorology)|precipitation]], often in abundance.
These clouds also produce fair weather [[waterspouts]] forming from mesocyclones. These waterspouts tend to perish after precipitation or strong [[downdraft]]s form, by which time the congestus may have advanced to cumulonimbus.

An approaching [[weather front]] often brings mid level clouds such as [[Altostratus cloud|altostratus]] or [[Altocumulus cloud|altocumulus]] which usually stop any cumulus from reaching the congestus stage by reducing the Sun's heat or acting as a layer of stable air through which the cumulus cannot rise through. Occasionally, however, particularly if the air below the mid level cloud is very warm or unstable, some of the cumuli may become congestus and the tops of them may rise above the mid level cloud layer, sometimes resulting in showers ahead of the main rainband. This is often a sign the approaching front contains at least a few cumulonimbi amongst the [[Nimbostratus cloud|nimbostratus]] rain clouds and therefore any rain may be accompanied by [[thunderstorm]]s.

<p>Cumulus congestus clouds are characteristic of unstable areas of the <a href="/wiki/Earth%27s_atmosphere" class="mw-redirect" title="Earth's atmosphere">atmosphere</a> which are undergoing <a href="/wiki/Convection" title="Convection">convection</a>.

Congestus clouds are capable of producing severe turbulence and showers of moderate to heavy intensity. This species is classified as vertical or multi-étage and is coded C<sub>L</sub>2 in the synop report. These clouds are usually too large and opaque to have any opacity or pattern-based varieties.
</p><p><a href="/wiki/Pyrocumulus_cloud" class="mw-redirect" title="Pyrocumulus cloud">Pyrocumulus</a> (No official abbreviation) is a free convective cloud associated with volcanic eruptions and large-scale fires. Pyrocumulus isn't recognized by the WMO as a distinct genus or species, but is, in essence, cumulus congestus formed under special circumstances that can also cause severe turbulence.
</p><p>Cumulus congestus will mature into <a href="/wiki/Cumulonimbus_calvus" title="Cumulonimbus calvus">cumulonimbus calvus</a> under conditions of sufficient <a href="/wiki/Atmospheric_instability" title="Atmospheric instability">instability</a>. This transformation can be seen by the presence of smooth, fibrous, or striated aspects assumed by the cloud's upper part. This cloud type produces <a href="/wiki/Precipitation_(meteorology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Precipitation (meteorology)">precipitation</a>, often in abundance.
</p><p>These clouds also produce fair weather <a href="/wiki/Waterspouts" class="mw-redirect" title="Waterspouts">waterspouts</a> forming from mesocyclones. These waterspouts tend to perish after precipitation or strong <a href="/wiki/Downdraft" class="mw-redirect" title="Downdraft">downdrafts</a> form, by which time the congestus may have advanced to cumulonimbus. Cumulus congestus clouds can produce precipitation and even <a href="/wiki/Lightning" title="Lightning">lightning</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Courtier_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Courtier-5">[5]</a></sup>
</p><p>An approaching <a href="/wiki/Weather_front" title="Weather front">weather front</a> often brings mid level clouds such as <a href="/wiki/Altostratus_cloud" title="Altostratus cloud">altostratus</a> or <a href="/wiki/Altocumulus_cloud" title="Altocumulus cloud">altocumulus</a> which usually stop any cumulus from reaching the congestus stage by reducing the Sun's heat or acting as a layer of stable air through which the cumulus cannot rise through. Occasionally, however, particularly if the air below the mid level cloud is very warm or unstable, some of the cumuli may become congestus and the tops of them may rise above the mid level cloud layer, sometimes resulting in showers ahead of the main rainband. This is often a sign the approaching front contains at least a few cumulonimbi amongst the <a href="/wiki/Nimbostratus_cloud" title="Nimbostratus cloud">nimbostratus</a> rain clouds and therefore any rain may be accompanied by <a href="/wiki/Thunderstorm" title="Thunderstorm">thunderstorms</a>.
