Clouds with extensive vertical development seen while flying over mountainous terrains are caused due to an unstable air mass that is forced to ascend a slope of the mountain.

Cumulus clouds are the clouds that exhibit major vertical development, how, ever it has not yet converted into a thunderstorm. It is also called cumulus congestus or towering cumulus.

The term cumulus has been derived from the Latin word <em>cumulo</em>, which means heap or pile. These clouds have flat bases and are described as "puffy" in appearance. They may only be only 1000 meters above the ground and their tops have rounded towers. These clouds develop in an upward motion and can grow into a giant cumulonimbus, which is a thunderstorm cloud.
