Cloud Street
A line of cumuliform clouds frequently one cumulus element wide, but
ranging upward in width so that it is sometimes difficult to differentiate
between streets and bands. Typical dimensions are: axis spacing, 1 to 30
miles; length of cloud streets, 10 to 200 miles; cell spacing along axis, 1/2
to 2 miles. See cloud band.
