Altostratus

Altostratus clouds are those large, elegant veils of cloud that stretch across a wide portion of the sky, like a soft, milky curtain filtering the sunlight. Located at mid-altitudes, generally between 2,000 and 6,000 meters, they are composed of water droplets and sometimes ice crystals. When they are present, the sun often appears as a pale disk behind frosted glass, giving the atmosphere a calm and hushed ambiance.

Scientifically, altostratus clouds are valuable messengers: they very often announce the arrival of a more active weather system, such as a low-pressure system or impending precipitation. They mark the transition between fair weather and a more overcast sky, gently preparing the ground for thicker clouds like nimbostratus. At once discreet, enveloping, and laden with meteorological significance, altostratus clouds are the clouds of patience and anticipation.

Want to capture that celestial veil without waiting for the rain? The Altostratus sticker is perfect for adding a touch of atmospheric poetry to your notebooks, computers, or tablets. A gentle cloud for weather enthusiasts… and those who love it when the sky whispers before it speaks!
