Loloa asked:

I know the abbreviations eg. CU=cumulus etc., but after the the type of cloud comes the scale eg. 1-3 (CU 1-3). What is the scale? One to ten (1-10)?
Thanks for any info, It’ll be greatly appreciated!

Joca asked:

When a jet airplane breaks the sound barrier, there’s always this kind of conical white cloud. I wonder also id the pilot can ear himself or the plane?
