i pretty much new all this stuff but it is still good to have a refresher, and a few more facts too, i found a few flaws about the description outcomes being to precise and strict, i have had very thick dark sheets of nimbostratus and never received any rain, but though it usually does, not as i am typing this because i have those clouds it is dry, though this is not an exact science.
