Twelve New Clouds
The International Cloud Atlas was first published in 1896 and is considered the most authoritative and comprehensive reference volume for identifying clouds. Now it's not every day that the world officially accepts a new species of cloud but in 2017 twelve clouds types were newly classified in the Atlas’ first update in 30 years. Join Glenn Minuth to find out how clouds, like flora and fauna, have an official classification system with ten different genera subdivided into species. More importantly, learn all about the new twelve so you can add them to your 'Life List'.
