Detailed explanation-1: -Strong cumulonimbus storm cells can produce thunder, lightning, hail, torrential rains, strong winds, and tornadoes. Cumulus congestus clouds, having more vertical development than fair-weather cumulus clouds, can also produce light rain, though not significant enough to warrant a name change to nimbus.

Detailed explanation-2: -Thick, dense stratus or stratocumulus clouds producing steady rain or snow often are referred to as nimbostratus clouds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Do all clouds make rain? Not all clouds produce rain or other types of precipitation (snow, sleet, freezing rain). The latin word “nimbus” means rain and is added as a prefix or suffix to the two clouds that produce precipitation: nimbostratus clouds or cumulonimbus clouds.
